I have it listed on eBay - http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewI...em=140219078047

 

I recommended this item to a coworker because I have one in my 2007 GMC Sierra and it works great so he bought it on eBay from the same seller. I did not realize it will not work on 2008 vehicles, therefore it did not work on his 2008 Chevrolet Silverado. This auction includes the PXDP3 and the PXH3GM1X harness for units with factory XM radio. The packaging was opened because a local car audio shop attempted to install it. The unit is working but did not have all functionality when installed in a 2008 vehicle.

 

So it is back on eBay - just make sure to read the vehicle compatiability section or you might end up like me. :cool:

Will this work with a 2007 Silverado NBS?

 

If so how much does he want for it??

 

Pete

 

I have a 2007 Sierra NBS without XM and I have the same item installed except with a different harness (PXH3GM1). The one I am selling is the one for Radios with XM.

 

-PXH3GM1X harness retains XM and connects to the XM tuner.

-Non-Navigation radios must have a "CAT" button on the faceplate.

-Compatible with navigation radios for the applicable vehicles listed above.

-Compatible with existing factory CD changer

-Not Compatible with 2008 GM vehicles.

-*In some late production 2007 Escalades GM switched to the 2008 model radio, so the PXDP3 may not be compatible in some 2007 Escalades with the new 2008 model year radio.

 

He just wants to get some of his money back. He paid $140 + $12 shipping, realistically I hope he gets about $100.

I don't mean to rain on anyone's parade here, but... I bought one of those PXDP3's last year, right after I got my 2007 Sierra Denali. I had the same "not all functions appear" problem. I was eventually told that "I may need a newer version."

 

The seller didn't have a newer version and Peripherals kept sending me back to the seller. After exchanging the module and the harness and it still didn't work, I finally fussed enough to get my money back. If you have a 2007 Sierra or Silverado w/ Nav, though, I would be cautious about buying it, because it will likely not have all the functions for you, either...

 

Sorry, Dzyuba, but after my experience with that product last year, I couldn't not say anything.

If you're asking me, I don't know. I think the ones I tried were either defective or otherwise incompatible with the stereo/nav in my truck. I couldn't get that to work right, so I have no clue what the steering wheel controls would do. Go check out their website. I believe there is info on there about the requirements for a non-NAV setup.

That's cool Michael, no offense taken. I am just trying to be nice and help sell something that someone bought mistakenly per my recommendation.

 

I recommended this product based on my good experience with the product, I can't say the same for Peripheral, the company itself. Mine controls the iPod through the steering wheel controls, shows albums, artists, playlists, genre and displays text on the radio (only English text though as Russian didn't display).

 

Since it worked on my truck I recommended it to my coworker and it ended not being compatiable with 2008 vehicles. When he was getting it installed, the installers called Peripheral and they said he needs to buy the newer PXAMG. I went to their website and tried looking up products for my vehicle and they list the PXAMG for my 2007. So technically I am using the wrong product in my truck. I can see where he might need the PXAMG for his 2008 but according to them that is what I need as well. It is just their way of making more money by dropping support of their older products and pushing their newer ones. There was nothing wrong with the previous one but companies make money by selling product not supporting existing products (kind of like Microsoft).

Dzyuba : No worries! I read one or two posts on message boards that indicated that the radio/NAV systems "may" have been updated (by GM) mid-year 2007. When I contacted Peripherals, they had no knowledge of that. So, maybe the PXAMG was a response to the new-model radios w/ NAV.

      I have thought an EV might have some practical value in extending the life of the ICE members of ones fleet. Now....I'm convinced of it. I've been letting my better half access Raven (Mitsubishi Mirage) for her needs while Dizzy has been in the shop. Being the fuel freak I am and given the fact Raven is capable of over 60 mpg in clean air on a warm day I was taken back by the wife's ability to take a car that had used a half a tank of gas that to that point had returned a value of 57 mpg and return in with a decimating 51 mpg for that same tank in that same day in a 15 mile round trip of short hop errands and a stop in the drive through at Micky D's.  😱   Trust me on this. It would take the remainder of that tank driven on the highway to return that tank to just 54 mpg. This is not a Mitsubishi issue. This is an ICE issue that is magnified in vehicles capable of such high fuel economy values. On a percentage basis your 1500 does the same thing. Short hopping an ICE consumes a good deal more fuel and in doing so provides zero additional useable outputs. That entire volume of fuel is wasted in diluting the cylinder walls oil films, creating crankcase moisture and acid content and the resultant wear.    Enter the SLATE. All of that is avoided and the ICE's advantage in range and made useful at reduced wear for your ICE!   Kind'a cool.

      Back in the day people would buy cars based on performance. The charger posted does 0-60 in 3.3 seconds. And it’s fully loaded.  It has a decent warranty and will fit most anyone’s needs. Remember the original Hemi? 90 day warranty. 25K mini truck or that car? I’d go with the car. It wouldn’t fit my perimeter. If I could just talk my wife out of her Genesis. It would be perfect for her.

      Let's pivot this back. Someone said they wanted pictures.   Even better, there's already video. Pre-prod prototypes are already on the road and they're letting the press drive them.   JerryRigEverything did a good review. I really enjoy his content and EV adventures, so I was thrilled when he had the chance to review a Slate:

      The Charger EV was stillborn. Wrong car at the wrong price for Dodge's intended audience. Now at a good price with fire-sale discounts, and still not selling, it's still very much the wrong car. Again, Dodge's intended audience. I believe a lot of Stellantis' EV blunders were all under Tavares' regime at Stellantis...the board convinced him to move on. Neat car, just wasn't received on the level that would sustain mass production.   Dodge is headed in a better direction for its core business. I didn't think there was anything left to get excited about re: the Durango after its 15 year run, but they're just now releasing a 392 version that should price out in the low 40's. Nicely done. I'm not sure I would touch anything Stellantis makes with a 10' pole these days, but the Durango is still mostly parts designed like 3 parent companies ago so maybe it's still OK?
