OGM-1 not compatible with 2013 models?

I spoke to Walt earlier this evening about the OGM-1. My initial question was whether I can control Pandora on my iPhone using the steering wheel control once the OGM is installed. However once Walt realized my vehicle is a 2013 and has the OEM navi-radio, he said I cannot swap out the factory nav-radio for the OGM. So has anyone managed to swap OEM navi-radios for the OGM in the 2013s? I have a 2013 Yukon XL SLT 2500

If I understand correctly, it's not the fact that it's a 2013, but you may have the DELUXE Bose system, also known as CENTERPOINT. Which uses a different style amplifier that receives a constant (non variable) signal from the factory head unit. The actual volume level is controlled by the LUX amplifier (smart amp), via a digital signal from the Body Control Module (BCM). I have not spoken with Walt, but I have done some research on this subject as I have wanted to replace my standard BOSE amp with a LUX amp because it has almost twice the power as the standard amp. I have an OGM-1 that I purchased used from another member on this forum installed in my '13 Sierra HD. But I only had the NON navigation standard BOSE audio system . It may be possible to do this using a Metra GMOS-LAN-7 adapter, but I would NOT expect ANYONE to warranty ANY damage to the radio OR amplifier if it fails and lets the magic smoke out (fry the radio or amp). So far I am still doing research mainly because I haven't found the nerve to try it yet..........

Thanks for the info. I have the Bose system with the navi-radio. I think I will call Walt again and get him to over the info again and write it down this time. I'll post back back with what he says exactly.

If you pm me the last 8 of your vin, I will be happy to look up the build of your truck on global connect and let you know if it is UQA (standard bose) or Y91 (what they refer to as center point). If you have the '13 HDD nav, I think you would be very sad indeed to trade that for any aftermarket unit period. The hdd units are great and you will definitely lose some functionality and integration by swapping that out.

      2 speed transfer case optional now?

      By Chuck FB · Posted

      Yes, and also pulling heavy trailers or a large camper up steep grades as well as descending grades such as the more rustic off road camping locations and using engine braking with that low gearing as well as soft ground can just suck the power . I realize pickups these days tend to have an over all lower first gear ratio compared to automatic transmission pickups from years back so that has helped a lot in its ability in high range but there comes a point if in four wheel drive the torque runs out at the wheels, certainly with a gas engine. They don't put two speed transfer cases on pickups for a cool factor, they have a function if one needs that massive torque to the wheels that high range can't deliver.

      Notes 7/18/2026   3,400 miles on this batch of Mobil 1 Euro 5W40 since the GDI pump replacement. Alcohol runs very clean when ring seal is tight and the sump isn't getting hosed with fuel. Checked oil level at fill up today as is my practice and grabbed a white Kleenex to look at the color. What color?  I was going to change it but.....

      Interesting, I suspect I would have fueled up in Lee Vining as the day prior I would have filled up either in Laughlin or near there and maybe again before I entered Death Valley and once out the other side late that evening as I kept on driving into the night up near Lee Vining. Next morning I most likely fueled up in LV before heading over Tioga Pass into ( as I refer to it as "Yose .... Mite" 😁 ). And again that was 19 years ago but the price then must not have jumped out at me like the 5 bill a gallon theme of nutty cult hippy country Big Sir or head so far up their rear Aspen. I'd be curious to know where the highest prices are in the lower 48, I probably would not be far off to guess somewhere in Cali forn ie. Coldfoot and Prudhoe bay may have those prices beat but that is a whole other world up there and when prices are more normal elsewhere that is about what they can be up there I believe in no mans land. Anyway interesting that the 395 corridor is hosing people and the thing is, its tourist season and its not like there are a lot of competition options when driving up that highway from what I could see. Yup, big ole Boaterhomes and various other RV's ahead and behind me at the Yosemite entrance gate and they have to get their fuel somewhere.

      Those can be high, as well as the big California cities. The ones that will pop your eyes out are the 395 corridor on the Eastern side of the Sierra Nevadas. Lee Vining, $7.19 for regular and $8.89 for diesel is what the Google said right now.
