I have an Sierra SLE with the IOR system. Anyone know what the speaker sizes are? Does a speaker upgrade make a noticeable difference using the stock head unit?

Best place I've always found to use for this is crutchfield.com, plug your car info in and they will show you what fits where.

I have a new 2020 GMC Sierra Denali and want to install a CD player. I tried my first one and they said it would not work with there technology. They did say I needed one with IOT tech. Now I can't locate one online that says it will work. Anyone know where i can purchase one?

Thanks

Instead of spending to add a cd to your truck, find (or purchase) a way to copy your cd music to a usb,

You will be able to fit many many cd's on a single USB stick.  Something like 10 music hours per GB if you use the mp3 format.

(Of course if the collection is large enough you might use more than one)

 

If your computer has a cd player and a usb port, you just need to decide which software to use. 

 

If your phone has enough storage you could use it to carry the music files.

 

Online version of the Infotainment guide can be downloaded from GM here:

 https://my.gmc.com/content/dam/gmownercenter/gmna/dynamic/manuals/2020/gmc/multimodel/2020-gmc-infotainment-guide-3.0.pdf

 

It has a bunch of information about operating the radio when playing from a usb, file types that it will play, usb formatting that is acceptable etc etc.

Thanks for the input. I mainly use it to listen to books which I had been getting from the library. They do offer downloads I will look into it.

Thanks again

There is an app called "Libby" that you can get on your phone.  You put in your library card details into the app and you can check out audio books from your local library digitally into your phone.  It is all free and most libraries support it.  Once you start using it, its so much nicer than having to keep up with physical media.

You should be able to add SiriusXM to your radio but navigation you can not.

crutchfield has a kit to install both to the IOR.. But there are much better sources of music and navigation thru android auto.. Such as  i prefer Amazon music and waze....

i went from IOR ( no sirius) to IOS and back to IOR ( with sirius)

 

i believe its in the sharkfin from what i gathered before on first truck

 

but yeah i didnt care too much about IOS becasue of android auto........i still do miss the IOS though as it had a couple other functions I liked that the IOR doesnt have but oh well.....

 

wish GM just did their infotainment like Ram does where you can just pay for the upgrade and all the systems are the same no matter the trim.....8.4 is same as well as 8.4 w/nav....

    • Well....I've done my first intake gasket. Probably wrong, but...we'll see?   Ultra black on the china walls and 1/4" up onto the sides of the intake gaskets. Permatex High Tack (couldn't find Gaskachinch) on the head side of the intake gasket. I read wrong and it says you're supposed to put it on the mating surface of the head, not the gasket. Hoping it's like a PB&J sandwich where it doesn't matter what side the PB goes on so long as there's jelly. That crap is messy/sticky and I got a dab or two on the intake port openings, tried to wipe it off. Hopefully it won't be a big deal and will only aid in sealing.   Per instructions I left the intake (top side) of the gasket dry except for a light smear of RTV around the coolant ports. Wiggling the intake in there was a bear but I had help to free me of surrounding wiring/stuff but I was basically able to set it straight down lined up with the bolt holes.   I did not think to wait until the RTV skinned over but there probably was 5-10 minutes while it sat before installing the intake.   Bolts finger tight first. Then, followed the Chilton's manual pattern to snug them to 15 lb-ft.   Waited a little over an hour, and then did the final torque in sequence again to 35 lb-ft.   Yesterday I replaced the fuel pressure regulator and got my new "nut and bolt kit" (fuel lines) installed. Damn GM used security torx on the spider, which I don't have, so I got scammed at the local HW store for an off-brand security Torx bit set.   The new driver's door mirror arrived yesterday, so, there's a chance this thing could be running and road legal tomorrow? I don't want to get my hopes up.   This will be my first time stabbing a distributor, too. Although, lucky me, someone else marked the old distributor for removal previously, I did see that. (Someone's been here before!!). Engine is still at TDC so it *should* be just a matter of transferring the mark to the new dizzy and rotating it into place.
    • He has his dad’s newer truck he’s put away. He has several old cars he rotates between him and his family. I’ve seen a restored square body and a SS Chevy truck he’s sometimes drives. He did raffle off a new suburban recently. As much as he is watched if he drove new stuff as a rule we’d know it. It would be fine by me. I don’t care what people prefer. I got one more new one in me. I’d rather my wife get one. I can’t get her out of the Genesis. Don’t tell anyone. I want her to get an electric truck. I want to put a generator in the back. Just because. She hasn’t bit yet.
    • Yes, you must have seen my thread on the Blazer. HOT GARBAGE, but I love them anyway. I'm convinced every car guy has a soft sport for an S/T series somewheres. Probably even a Panther too, if I'm being an honest car guy. That doesn't mean they aren't junk. And they definitely don't get better with age. I sometimes play with old cars, but that's by choice. I don't rely on them and they aren't my everyday fleet.   Derek plays the common man on Youtube and that's no doubt where he started. Now he has Youtube money (and Motortrend, etc). You think his crews and his wife ride around in old beaters when they're chasing him and his wrecks across the country? No he's got newer and nicer stuff for that, you'll see glimpses of it in the footage.
    • You refuse to own anything made in this century yet you reportedly own... a 2007 Silverado, which is now almost 20 years old. The dissonance.... turn up your hearing aid?   You clearly don't understand the government contracting process, brother. We send people to die on front lines, keep the public safe, and make people's husbands, wives, children enter burning buildings with equipment from .....wait for it.....   ...the lowest bidder....   Just because something is used for a long time doesn't mean it's good. But it might be cheap and plentiful.   Please, continue to whine about new trucks in a thread dedicated to new trucks, which you've said you'll never own. We get it. Go tell everyone how you're stuck in time on a Panther forum. I mean, Jesus, an 86 isn't even one of the good Panthers.
    • It really is comical when people don’t agree or see the reason some people prefer the older vehicles. They become condescending. All the while they may be busting their knuckles on old vehicles. I have found memories of swapping out engines in my old GM cars in a weekend without much hassle. Unlike today. One wrong move a computer will shut you down. Even on something as easy as a brake job. There’s a pretty comical YouTuber called the car wizard. A garage owner who puts it all in perspective. Another Vicegrip garage that’s shows just how tough the old stuff is.
