I have been reading practically every post here on NAV installs w/ and w/o Bose etc.

Just making sure I have all that I need.....

I have coming an OEM NAV unit # 15882766
OEM Antenna # 15135178
NAV disk # 15934919

What else?

I have read about the plug in from JPcustoms for the VSS
and I have also read about the Lockpick

I assume I would need both of these....

and also what all should be unlocked at the dealer?.


Thanks in advance

 

You will need the plug from JP customs.....but you only need the lock pick if you want to watch movies while in drive or driving!
Write down the last paragraph on the first page of(how to install navigation 2007 Tahoe) written by "ZX" and bring it to the Chevy dealer!
This will help them understand how to program the Nav unit if they are not familiar!

 

One more thing that you are missing!
You will definetly need an ampilfier and the amp install wire harness from JP customs if you have a LS model!!!!
The harness is $40 from JP customsand you can get a 4 channel aftermarket amp for about $60

 

Excellent,that is what I needed to know.
Thank you!!!

So I am assuming from the reading I have done here,that I will have to talk to Brian at JP customs and ask him because one or both of these items are not listed on their site.

 

I just bought a factory Bose amp.What will I need to connect this unit inline with the NAV unit.
I am just making sure I have everything I need to go in once,finish the job and get out.

Thanks

 

Ok,I finally have everything here.
My questions are:
Can the 4 channel amp that will be hooked up to the JPCustoms harness power all the speakers?
Also,I have the Gm lock pick from Coastal Electronics.I am assuming that this just plugs in to the radio and the VSS plugs into the harness.....
..and, how are the speakers "hooked up " to the amp using the factory speaker wiring.

I think I am over my head on this deal....

 

Got it all hooked up by a local shop and it works SWEET!!!!

 

Did they (you) use the OEM Bose Amp?

 

No,I had an aftermarket amp installed under the2nd row seats....but I just bought a center console with a bose amp,wiring harness,and rear audio controls and I am trying to firgure out how I can utilize the Bose amp and get the rear controls to work properly.I think I am in need of another wiring harness to go between the HU and the amp harness.The worse case scenario will be I just install the center console and the rear controls will just not work.

This is the adapter I had them install along with the GM lock pic Gen3
