My units have already been sent to others to try. In response to danno's questions, the steering wheel functions all continued to work. I really never used voice controls, so I'm not sure, but I wouldn't think they were affected. The only functionality I know was disabled by the BlueStar was...

:( Car sold No longer have my XLR, but I did remove the BlueStar and SoundGate GMPD2 interfaces. They were installed on my 2005, and I think work for model years 04-06. If you're interested, PM me and I'll be glad to send either to you to try. Because they were installed and used, I hesitate to...

Moving to another vehicle, my loss/your gain; Custom etched, lighted windscreen, 2005 shop manuals+, and XLR Diecast model/Lt Platinum. See my posts on Ebay under majik755... or search under XLR

You got it, now it nice and pretty... :laugh:

HOMEGAMEROOM is exactly right, and tough to describe, but there is a circular tab on each side that they attach to. I had to take mine down to get to the XM module behind the passenger seat, it covers all the mechanisms and things behind the seats. Unfortunately you need the top up to get to it...

monepit Great solution, I was also looking into a similar installation after seeing this, but noticed that both the cigarette lighter and center console power source remained powered after i turned off the car. I will remove my IPhone, but the charger remains powered after shutting and locking...

Latest update Car is back in the shop. Still getting intermittent SVS message in the DIC, but no error codes in any of the computers, none of the history, nowhere. After raising a stink with the Director of Service, there was miraculous contact made with GM engineers, including the guy (Chris...

HOMEGAMEROOM What made them replace the BCM and PCM? What were the probelms you experienced with that?

Yup, both stay on. Luckily the XLRs have the protection in them to shut everything down after that 15 - 20 min mark. The batteries in these things go quick enough without power tenders. Good call Floyd

Test complete, while everything else turns off in a few minutes or with the fob lock, the two power sources cigarette lighter and console power remained hot between 20 -30 minutes after everything else was shut down. Not sure I like that, would prefer at least one shut down with everything else...

Test underway. Shut off car, radio left on and stayed on, interior lights stayed on, lighter and power outlet stayed on. Outside car, locked with key fob... radio turned off, interior lights turned off, running lights turned off, horn beeped. Lighter and power outlets both are still powered...

i always thought that even those RAP accessories would shut down when you lock the car using the key fob. If me radio is on and I hit the lock its shuts down the radio. The power outlets in my XLR do not shut down with the radio when I use the fob lock. At the risk of having to recharge the...

Does anyone know if the power to the cigarette lighter and/or the power outlet in the console turn off with the car. I was trying to decide if I can leave a phone charger plugged into either one, but the power light on the charger stayed on in both when I shut off the car. I thought it might be...

Living in the DC area, i can tell you the same plates means Secret Service protection. In a motorcade the vehicles have to be identical so no one can tell which is carrying the official being protected. Can't tell what the seal is on the flag. My guess is they may be for the VP, but just a...

Nice try, last time my wife asked to use the car i "couldn't remember" where I left the second fob. Age has some benefits...senior moment time Of course that only works once, now fob 2 has been found and relegated to a predefined spot... :(
