Ready to replace stereo system, but affraid of BCM issues
Please advise,
I have all the parts to replace the factory stereo and install a Aftermarket Pioneer In dash DVD player, new door speakers and a sub and amp. I still plan to use the factory Pioneer amp to power the door speakers, and have the LAN04 adapter for the door chimes and Onstar. After having seen all the electrictal issues regarding the BCM, should I reconsider? I am just afraid that if I start having electric issues the dealer will just blame it on the aftermarket stereo, even though the only place there will be any cutting or splicing the factory wires will be at the speakers. A few days ago I thought I saw a flicker in the factory stereo out of the side of my eye, but it was daytime, and I may have just seen the radio station information change, making me think it was a flicker. My car is a 2008 SS that I picked up used with 31k on the odometer back a month ago. I purchased a extended warranty, and had the open recalls completed and have already had the factory boost gauge replaced twice. Lucky for me the service manager I am working with is a cool person, but if they see a aftermarket stereo in the car I am afraid I may be sol?
