Got a 2019 GMC Sierra Denali - Has all the bells and whistles, BUT no CD player. Anybody got a fix to add a CD player to my truck? GMC & Chevrolet dealers are absolutely no help.

Its 2020, physical media is dead. Put your CDs on a flash drive or stream like the rest of the planet.

I like having a CD player.

Bought a new Honda. No CD player.

Friends bought a new KIA. No CD player.

My 2012 Sierra, no CD player.

Use a flash drive in Honda and my truck.

Couple options.  The best option is to put your CDs on to a giant USB drive.

 

Streaming.

 

USB powered CD player.  

 

Trade it in for something that has a CD player if you really really really really really really really don't want to get with technology.

Looks like the replies you are going to get will be more useless than the one from the manufacture and dealers......

I do not miss those things skittering all over the truck if I have to hit the brakes really hard.

Not in the least little bit.  32 gig flash drive holds more music than you can get in your glove box/console compartment.  And easily accessable.

More useful replies than the manufacturer since Chevrolet/GMC don't even have the option for one from the factory at all.

That is actually a really good reply to his question.

 

Not sure he was asking for alternate solutions with different types of media or personal preferences or which decade he should live.

CD's are obsolete. If Chevy put one in your truck - they would get LAUGHED at. ESPECIALLY in a vehicle with apple car play. You can play any song on demand whenever you want. If you feel you truly need a CD player buy one and install.

I use iPod, my phone with pandora and I heart. If I at almost 65 can figure out how to convert my CDs to my phone or iPod anyone can. The best part you can put ear buds in and go portable.

No available AM tube radios, cassettes or 8 tracks either.

Just buy a portable CD player and connect it to the aux input in the console. Or like everyone else said, stream/USB/CarPlay etc..

Being obsolete isn't necessarily a bad thing. People still have horses even though they are far inferior to motorized vehicle. Some people just like to remember the "good old days".

I totally agree. I'm a vinyl record guy myself. But the point is state of the art designers and engineers are not going to put a CD player in a new truck. Just like they wont put in a cassette player or 8 track tape player. You have to go aftermarket like the suggestions say.

    • Of course refrain from political debate but I myself have very dismal hope for what is all going on up here every where we turn so I nodded my head when I saw this joke.     
    • I'm looking at carpal tunnel surgery on my left hand and lumbar fusion. 
    • While waiting for parts I have been working on installing the AC compressor, new accumulator, and orifice tube. Also changed out the high side ball valve (original). The orifice tube that was in there wasn't too bad. Slightly dirty, a little bit of junk, but not blocked. Glad I changed it out.   The accumulator, which should have been a 5 minute job, may have just burned $50. Put some PAG in it, wrote the date and mileage on the side, fresh o-rings and gooey'd up the threads and rings with Nylog. Got everything connected and snugged and was going to vacuum down the system, and....   My manifold gauge won't fit on the port. It's not an R12 service port. It LOOKS like an R134 service port but the diameter is a hair too large. There's a sticker on the accumulator that says it's designed to be used with R12 and R134a systems only. So it's not R1234yf. Even if I reduced the diameter slightly with a file, the shoulder on the port is too large so the quick-connect valve won't lock on. I'm stumped. It's going back, and 50/50 on if they'll give me a refund.   Also, I did a fuel pressure test.... Key on, the gauge spikes to about 60psi and quickly bleeds off, like 2psi per second. The fuel isn't going into the plenum, no smell, starts fine, so I'm guessing there's a bad check valve in the pump and the fuel is just draining back into the tank. oh, hell. But, it shouldn't be a problem, pump primes just fine and the truck starts right up. It just means I can't really ever use fuel pressure to verify a leak at the injector or intake.
    • Got this yesterday out of nowhere. Truck is a 25',6.6 gasser with 8k miles.  Only semi anomaly is that the truck had been sitting, uncranked for 6 days. Elec Stability Control showed immediately upon cranking, not while driving. No drivability issues, just the message. Battery didn't seem to be weak when cranking over.  I drove it, killed it, let it sit a few hrs with no avail.  Truck is 100% stock. No damage. 
    • This can be done.  It is not cheap and requires an instrument cluster swap with custom programming, new steering wheel with the controls on it, and a special jumper harness.   The cluster upgrade - 12.3” Digital Cluster Upgrade – 2022.5–2026 Silverado / Sierra (T1 Refresh Pickup) - WAMS   The wheel upgrade - Steering Wheel Upgrade Kit – 2022.5–2026 Silverado / Sierra (T1 Refresh Pickup) - WAMS   The column harness upgrade - 2019 - 2026 Silverado / Sierra: Steering Wheel LIN Bus Harness - Harness Dr. - DIY Done Right     The problem with doing all of this?  You pretty much can't have any programming done to your truck that involves the cluster ever again.  The dealer won't be able to program the cluster as GM's system will only pull data for the cluster the truck came with.  So it would be advised also to turn off over the air updates.   TLDR;  Should have bought an LT double cab?  You'd have a power seat, the wheel controls, the cluster, all things that you've been seeking in your various posts so far about your new WT regular cab.
