Yes they fit. It's the best radio ever (I've owned a lot of radios).

 

For the metra kit use the Suzuki\GM multi kit part #99-2003 it has some useful extra parts like an extra trim ring.

 

The install is easy.

changed my mind found out that I would be down grading to the 200, it has less options that the reason for the 400$ diff., and don't get me wrong I love alpine if it had the features that mine had i would sell it.

I'm just wondering. What features does the 310 have that the 200 doesn't?

 

I believe the cost difference is because the .5" smaller screen (It's hardly noticeable), the fact that the unit doesn't require as many parts because it doesn't flip out, and the prices have to come down due to the fact so many of the other manufacturers are selling cheaper units.

 

Another reason this unit is less expensive is so they can sell all the add-on units(bluetooth, usb adapter, etc.).

 

If you change to the 200 you won't feel like its a downgrade.

 

Just my .02. :sigh:

I have a friend that owns a high end car audio buiss. in town and he is the one that told me, and he's all about upgrade $$$ the 200 was designed to be competive with other manf. units, I wanted the 200 bad like 4 months ago but he told me he would keep the one I have, it wouldn't be a down grade, just less than I have now,I just can't see going backwards, and I can get this unit cheap, I like the way the 200 looks, trust me I am not shooting this unit down, I like it, and as far as the add on features....well I have to buy them too, Alpine is an alacarte company.

You hit that one right on the nose. :tear:

 

But there's none better.

 

 

 

 

 

I'm lovin the way that stereo looks, I've had my finger on the mouse a few times, close enough to press the purchase button, anyways I got a question, maybe you can answer: That Metra part #99-2003, is that compatible with an '05 Sierra? and secondly, the alpine-usa.com website says the screen folds flush (I think they call it "swingface") does it really fold flush when not in use? Thanks for your help.

Yes that kit will work for an 05 Sierra.

 

It sits flush if you don't mount it the way its supposed to be mounted.

You can make it sit flush.

 

If you're in So California (I'm in San Pedro) you can bring it over here and I'll help you install it flush. I teach a Mobile Electronics installation program and I'm open to helping anyone install their own equipment.

 

email me if you want help. [email protected]

mrinstall, what add ons have you got? I would like to know if you add the Alpine NVE-N872A navigation unit, if you still have to use the remote that comes with it, or if you can control everything through the 200?

We have a Blackbird but the cradle hasn't come out yet.

 

As far as the NVE-N872A you can control the unit from the touchscreen.

      AFM Experience

      By Grumpy Bear · Posted

      Question @diyer2 on this line if you please. Are you saying the shudder is the system turning on and off at the frequency of the shudder? Guess I'm asking if you are saying you have seen it do this with the bi-direction scan tool in graph mode? If so have you been able to discern the 'trigger'. Something is telling to cycle rapidly.    My truck just started doing this recently. 197K on the clock. My response has been M5 anything under 55 mph. I treat it like a lugging stick shift. Gear down and let it spin a bit. Engauge M5, then tow mode and then M6 lets the trans stay in 5th but the AFM is active. Smooth like Skippy.    My thought was that as a machine ages the friction gets lower and as the system is load based, the lower friction would allow it to turn on at ever lower rpm until it reaches the lugging point. And yes I am ignorant of any minimum rpm requirement for the system. If you know that would be useful information.    As you know I run a Scan-Gauge II which allows me to watch the On/Off of the signal to the VLOM. While in the shudder mode I'm not seeing is cycle at that frequency or at all for that matter outside the triggers @newdude posted a few years back. Now is it possible that the refresh rate isn't fast enough to catch it? Maybe. It is why I asked my first question about graphing and trigging parameter.     As we have observed from members here the failure point is all over the map miles wise as you note yourself in your opening post. That by itself begs a few questions like fellows that comment on these lifters failing even after the system has been disabled. Long after. 😬   https://www.enginelabs.com/news/tech-tips-replacing-ls-active-fuel-management-lifters-with-melling/   The Gen5 lifters operate the same as the LS versions. In fact they are the same lifter.    https://www.enginelabs.com/tech-stories/sorting-out-gen-v-lt-lifter-failure-with-a-simple-valvetrain-fix/

      14-18 Sierra 1500 Heated Steering Wheel Help

      By SwitchBladeSierra · Posted

      UPDATE 2: Steering wheel control backlights and control of the cluster can supposedly be achieved by adding a wire to pin 20 of the cluster and tapping it to pin 2 of the main clock spring harness. I'm going to give it a shot - will update

      Seems to be Missing a lot of Updates

      By newdude · Posted

      GM Global A pickups 2019-2022 can do OTA programming for the radio.  GM VIP (GM Global B) can do OTAs for almost every module on board.  So a 2022.5 and newer pickup can do OTAs for recalls like the 2.7 fuel flow recall.  EVs get OTAs that improve one pedal driving, radio issues, HVAC issues, updated battery management software, etc.     So age of the vehicle/what GM electrical platform its on will alter what amount of updates can be pushed on OTAs.

      Upgrade to a 2026 AT4 with the 3.0L Duramax

      By Blade8971 · Posted

      Thank You.   So far my new ride is making me look like a genius for going with the 3.0L, as my first fuel refill occurred over three weeks from when I took delivery.  This engine combination is very amazing.  So far no issues and had not done a regen yet.

      Correct way to service 2024 l8t allison trans?

      By Chuck FB · Posted

      I am curious as to how much fluid you put back in the transmission ( assuming you had replaced the filter to compare to my findings ) and then went through the process of warming up the trans before pulling the check plug to drain out the excess and if you measured how much came back out.    I just found it surprising that some claimed a certain amount less fluid being put in and then draining some back out. The attitude of the truck as per if the surface is level and how the trucks stance is would make quite a difference since the check plug is right at the front of the transmission.
