Double Din Stereo

Hi everyone,

I've just purchased a C6 and was looking to upgrade the stock stereo to one with Apple Carplay. I've looked online and it looks like I need the fascia which I've ordered however it mentions a PAC RP5-GM11 which is a harness.

Do I need this?

Looking for some general advice on what I'd need to upgrade, it's the Bose model with Onstar.

Cheers.

Hi there. I wrote an article in the mag after I'd done this job in 2023. All the info you need is in the article which you will find on here. I fitted a reversing camera as well which these cars really need. The PAC unit is the interface to adapt the new head unit to the car. Amongst other things, it retains the steering wheel controls. You need to completely disable the Onstar unit which is located in the trunk. My car has the optional Bose system and the sound is truly amazing.
