o8 uplander navigation
I had a post for the navi for a 08 uplander which was inadvertantly pulled because of my e-mail address (don't ever fight the boss). Here are the pictures of the installation which took the best part of 11 minutes.

Yes I did... You have to use a delphi lux (if you have bose or want to add an amp) or non-lux (if you have the stock radio). The easiest way is to buy a radio that has the lock removed. I had a 05 canyon that I had previously put nav in and moved it to the uplander. Here is the trick... When you go and clear the lock on the uplander, you must clear it as a basic radio and not a deluxe radio... I sat at a chevrolet dealership for 2 hours and i finally convinced them that the uplander does not recognize the deluxe style radio... The only difference it makes is when you turn the radio on, you get a white screen instead of the chevrolet emblem for the first 5 sec... put the antenna somewhere open under the dash and you are all set... the gps antenna works fine velcroed to the top of the radio or slide it under the dashboard in an open spot... I have done several uplander and colorado/canyon pickups... it also works in trailblazers and envoys... And, don't be scared, it is just a radio and an antenna...
If you have the rear dvd, it still works... If you don't, add a sirius gm-1 kit and you will have sattelite radio... trick on it... Velcro the antenna to the center of your dashboard (run cable to the front and down) and you won't have the ugly antenna on your roof...

Uplander Nav
I've found www.replacementradios.com they seem to have everything one would need to do this mod except for the nav dvd. What's their pricing like in comparison to say ebay?

I am new to this forum. I have been looking for a while for a navigation system for our 2006 uplander that will be a replacement and still keep the DVD system. What vehicle did this come from? I have a Grand Prix Navigation System from my old car, it plugged in great and seemed to work but not a proper fit.
Thanks,
Thanks,

04-09 canyon or Colorado fit right in. you have to modify where the mounting bolts screw in but that is no biggie. mine was non lux and remember to clear it as a basic radio. premium will not clear the lock.

Need help for Uplander Navigation Upgrade
Installing a 2007 Saturn Relay Navigation radio, RPO U3U GM P/N 10373724 in my 2008 Chevrolet Uplander which originally had the US8 Base radio.
I have already installed the Navigation antenna in the proper location under windshield dash pad and added a green wire to the units C2 connector for the VSS signal.
I mistakingly thought I could splice the other end of the VSS green wire to the Instrument cluster connector, but do not see a green wire on that connector. I assumed I could do that because of past experience with Silverado trucks and that being the case..
