    Dash Mat

    I'm considering putting a custom dash mat on my 09 XLR. 2 reasons: Protection of the dash material, and reduce glare from the dash onto the windshield. I installed a "dash cam" to my car and the glare impacts the videos. Has anyone put a custom "dash mat" on their XLR? If so, what brand did...

    Looking for the latest Western US Navigation Disc

    https://www.kenwood.com/usa/car/excelon_reference/dmx958xr/ Great product. Looks great and works perfectly with CarPlay. It did require replacing the center dash bezel (they all do) but the black one looks fine in the car. I did not do it myself. I had it done by the professionals. All in...

    Help! Programming 2009 XLR Key-fob

    I bought an extra key-fob for my 2009 XLR and I'm having trouble programming it to my car. I do own and have fobs 1 and 2 that work. The new fob is a new GM product, number 25926473, which I understand to be fob #1. I followed the instructions documented in many places (see below) and get to...

    Replaced Radio/Navigation unit in my 2009

    I decided to upgrade the radio/navigation system in my 2009 XLR. With no current maps available, and no interface with newer services (like Apple CarPlay,) I decided to bring the navigation/entertainment system into the 21th century! Yesterday, I had a Kenwood DMX957XR system installed. It...

    Looking for the latest Western US Navigation Disc

    I can't see where/how to remove this request. I no longer need the nav disc because I decided to get a new, aftermarket radio/entertainment system. I really wanted to get an Apple CarPlay interface, which will allow me to use the Apple (or Google) map system. I have that same functionality in...

    Looking for the latest Western US Navigation Disc

    When I bought my 2009 XLR a month or so ago, it had the Eastern US Navigation disc in the player. I live in the western USA. I know these maps are quite dated and have limited use. Still, I would like to see my local POI. Anyone have a western US disc they are willing to part with? Or...

    Exterior door unlock button

    Thanks. I thought of doing that but at $30, it was not worth the effort.

    Thanks. My XLR is so nice I just had the plastic shield/invisible bra put on the whole front end. Worthwhile investment as I plan to keep her for a while. The C5 you saw in one of my pictures is the 2003 50th Anniversary convertible. That's actually a car I gave my daughter about 10 years ago...

    The Saga of owning an XLR.

    That's what I like to hear!

    The Saga of owning an XLR.

    Wow! Quite an expensive adventure. As a new owner of a 2009 XLR, I sure hope I don't have a 10th of your issues. (And I do know that "hope" is not a good strategy!) My XLR only has 20k miles so I'm starting at a different point. However, I will take note of your issues. Enjoy your truck!

    Oil leak

    I agree with you completely. A minor leak of a 15 year old car would not normally concern me. It's a bit of a test of my warranty. If they say no, I'm likley to just leave it alone. If they agree to fix it, I'm fortunate to have a local dealer with experience with these XLRs.
