10mikeymike,
I was wondering if you would know if the SIR-GM1 will work after I install an aftermarket Navigation System, into my 2004 Yukon SLT, which has the XM option.
The Navigation Sytem I am planning to install is a Pioneer AVIC- Z2. I would love to use the XM antenna which is already in place, instead of having a whole lot going on, atop of my roof of my truck.
Any insight will be greatly appreciated.

#26 of 72 XM Song Information by rkg1

2003 Yukon XL w/ XM Radio
 
Does anyone know how to get the song information to display when listening to XM Radio? We were told that you can access the Name of the Song or Artist, etc. when listening to XM, but we don't know if this is true or how to do it.
 
Thanks!!

Try going to PAC audio , I think it's PACaudio.com (Pacific Audio Company) and they would probably have the adapter for you, they have them all.

#29 of 72 SIMPLE 2007 Yukon Radio questions by neicey59

When we purchased our 2007 Yukon SLT it supposidly came with XM, each time we push the button it tells us it's not there. Some say we need to activate XM, some say we need to have XM installed as the vehicle is only XM ready". The Dealership says "XM ready, and wants to sell us $1,000 in components in order for us to have XM.
 
Help - which is right?

I could be wrong, but I would press that blue OnStar button and ask them to tell you what you have as far as if your SLT is XM ready, or if you need additional equipment... From there, assuming that your SLT is XM Ready, the OnStar Customer Support can even help you to set-up/activate the XM account; yeah, they will likely need your credit card number...

#32 of 72 2003 yukon xl, double din bose, help please by benscoobert

May 17, 2008 (2:19 pm)

New member here, HI
 
I just decided to treat myself to a 2003 Yukon XL SLT, very rare here in the UK
I am prepared to order from the US for my install, but obviously I want to get it right 1st time
 
Mine is a 2003 SLT, I am told it has a BOSE system, the speakers say BOSE on them but the headunit doesn't. The headunit has Delco part No. 15184935 on the side, is that BOSE?
 
OK, here is my plan, the way I see it I have 2 options.
Preferred Option 1:
Below the regular headunit in the centre console there is a space which has a single DIN opening which tapers off towards the back. I thought I could add a DVD 7 inch flip up screen here and feed the audio to the aux of the headunit.
Upon looking at the rear of the headunit today I see I will need an adapter like this maybe http://www.logjamelectronics.com/pacaaigm24.html
 
Option 2:
I replace the headunit for a double DIN in dash screen.
This brings up a whole load of issues with the BOSE amp and speakers already installed and also the onboard bongs etc.
Also the wife doesnt like the way the headunit points towards the driver and she cant see the screen properly, to I guess if I did it this way it might need a 2nd screen anyway
 
Soooo, can anyone advise the best route here, am I missing something which make this job easier or harder?
Thanks in advance
Ben

You can add a new head unit to a bose system. They make loads of adapters... www.bestkits.com It should not be a big deal.
