I've been doing some research on this for my stereo upgrade. One of the guys I work with have used the PAC units with much success. The company name is PAC Audio (just do a quick Google search and you will get the website), and they have a "where to buy" locator.
installed this in my 07 impala just like he did but the light blue lights is all that work now no xm or am/fm or cd and service airbag warning came on. but when i unhook it all everything works fine. dont get it?
I know this was posted a while ago but I got the line out converter and hooked everything up but now I don't have sound in my front speakers or warning signals. Any help?
i am starting a build on a customer's 2010 impala and was wondering what year the impala in this video is so i know if it is an accurate reference to use. I mostly specialize in imports so I am not very familiar with Impalas and I am finding that there is very little info in forums on this car. My customer just wants basic subs so I plan on tapping into the speaker outputs behind the stock head unit since they are low level outputs already they don't need a box style high low adapter since they have the bose system, I assume it has an onboard amp somewhere which means the speaker outputs on the head unit are low level outputs. (which is why that PAC adapter you used can adapt them straight to RCA.) I mainly need to know the best remote and power wire methods as the HU does not have a switched 12v wire and I am unsure of the voltage on the amp turn on wire. Will have to do more research but would love to know what year this is. Thanks!
slario75 no you should not have to. it remains in the Body Control Module. only way you should need a code it if you swap the radio with a different car. the radios are VIN coded to that specific vehicle.
i went to best buy and they said that if i wanted to put a different car stereo in my 2011 impala the harness for this car would be over $150 ...and i have to get some extra shit to make everything work on the car ...so i would have to spend over $300 just to install my jvc car stereo in the 2011 impala...THATS REAL STUPID FOR GM TO MAKE CARS LIKE THAT ....i rather have a old school car again!
Is Tom Hanks doing this?

Where'd you get the converter at?
Where did you splice the amp turn-on wire?

I had the same problem, just wiggle the wires.
I just got a 2010 Chevy impala will this work just to run a amp sub no mids or high?
Is it worth getting the PAC or is it better to jus get a aftermarket harness and do as such..
Where did you mount you ground cable for your amplifier?
i mounted mine to the bolt for xm radio in the trunk that way you dont have to drill holes
Is the stock stereo on a 2016 Impala Limited LT upgradable?
Yes just very difficult to expensive update on your setup?

hey where did you get that convertor from?
Did you have to enter a code for your radio to operate after you disconnected the battery cable?
slario75 no you should not have to. it remains in the Body Control Module. only way you should need a code it if you swap the radio with a different car. the radios are VIN coded to that specific vehicle.
RVGURU Thanks.
Do I have to use the exact same model
We're did u get the converter??
hey this series is great. i have an 08 impala. Did yours have the onstar in it? just wondering if the process is the same. thanks
What does that thing do???
Does anybody know if that radio will fit in a 03 impala
How much did the converter cost?
Can you put a 2006-2009 impala stock radio into a 2005 impala
no
Why not?
The Wire harnesses are completely different and it will not fit in the dash properly
you know they sell little plastic non marring pry bars just for that never use metal or knife in interior
Good information. Do you have electricity where you live.......maybe a light bulb.
