Just bought a 2007 NBS extended cab with factory Nav, is there a way to do a mod or ground a wire or anything so that you can operate nav/ radio ipod function while vehical is in motion? I know on the aftermarket ones you can ground out a wire so it thinks that the vehicalis stoped all the time. Anyone do any of the DVD video mod they sell on ebay so that you can play a DVD in the factory Nav radio? Any help would be great. thanks

there is a harness that will fool the system into thinking that the truck is in park all the time, be aware if you have any problems with this, GM will void your warranty quick. This may cause GM Lan communication problems with the rest of the truck unless done correctly.

As I understand it, you can play DVDs in the front if you have a DVD nav unit. It does not matter if you have a rear DVD. Not 100% sure.

Has anyone purchased/used one of these yet?

 

I have been trying to contact them with a question about the GMX320, but they have never replied :D.

 

Now I am afraid to buy one of these, due to the lack of customer support and the web site does not even say if it comes with a warranty...

 

Anybody have any insight?

 

Thanks, Joe

I bought the Ipod Lockpick from them and it was horriable so i sent it back this week, the guy i talked to was very nice and explained the the ipod wasn't very user friendly so i'm sure that the 320 will work ok. Call and leave a message and he will call u back later in the evening. Everything has a money back garentee too, no question asked if you dont like it.

Thanks for the feedback :smash:.

 

I would call them except I could not find a number anywhere on the website.

 

If you still have the number, can I get it from you?

 

Thanks again,

 

Joe

      upgrading speakers on 2026 std cab WT...

      By bwiese · Posted

      I don't wanna do major surgery/upgrades, behind-the-dash work, add amps, change radio etc. on my '26 std cab WT. On the WT, it has the base 7" IOR infotainment setup, and only two speakers (doors). Since I listen to classical, looked around for speakers that do well and dug thru reviews. Two-way speakers were found to be better than 3-way. So I've ordered a pair of  Infinity Reference REF-9632IX 2 way speakers.  [These may  or may not have been discontinued / succeeded by the 3-way ...9633 ones.]    These speakers are lauded for 3 ohm and 94db sensitivity spec so they'll work well for ordinary base car radios without amps and offer better performance (quality,  strength) than  default base paper-cone speakers. They'll be installed in a few days and I'll let y'all know what I think. Bill W San Jose

      Thanks!   Changed out the rear shocks today to Bilstein 5100s.  So far feel much better. The stock Rancho were wore out.  Lots of heavy hauling (2 moves, home renovations, etc).  Next up is new BFG tires Monday.  Cant wait the current tires have little to no wet traction and are super loud (hum)

      Correct way to service 2024 l8t allison trans?

      By Chuck FB · Posted

      How about I just point to the factory pans stand pipe little drain plug and claim its a pan with a real drain plug !. I just couldn't swallow the fact that a Dorman pan which at this point is probably the only pan out there that fits the gas version truck cost that much up here in Canada so I decided initially anyway to skip it and see what I thought of pulling the pan method and down the road if I felt inclined enough then I would either install a drain plug kit in the factory pan if there is enough room for it, or have a bung welded onto it, or put an aftermarket pan on. The thing is if the pan is not pulled then the magnets in the pan can't be inspected and cleaned or if wanting to change out the filter. However of course it certainly would make the job easier to be able to drop the oil first before having to handle the pan if dropping the pan that go around was the goal.    I knew a guy locally that was doing custom field spraying years ago with a pickup pulling a ground driven sprayer, I believe it was a GM pickup with an automatic trans. He had a drain plug in his pan and would drop the oil out of it once a week and top it back up through the dipstick tube to keep refreshing a portion of the oil often and that made the transmission last far longer than had he done nothing. Soft fields pulling 500 gallons of water at the start of each mixed up sprayer tank batch and in low range sucking along. I imagine he got some tips from other custom sprayer outfits doing the same thing at the time and learning from their blown up tranny mistakes. Transmissions then had no lock up converter so would cook the crap out of the fluid slipping that much and it would not have been synthetic fluid either.
