It comes on automatically when I shift into reverse. I also have the bypass set-up so I can watch it while in motion, split screen with about 1/3rd of the screen being a navi map.
I bought the Audiovox back up cam that comes mounted in a license plate frame,,, very clean install, no drilling required

I tapped mine into the reverse light wire in the trunk.

i have an 08 tc. i figured id have to buy the xm and steering wheel cables (or interface) im not real sure, kinda new to this. i think the xm thing is like an extra $100 for the premier. i was hoping i could get the bluetooth to work through the car speakers and factory onstar microphone? and i just want it to be back up camera capable. i was gonna add that later.

not really bluetooth is a feature you want to fine thats "built in" otherwise youll need another module for that like the xm. Price wise you want the built in one and it works better anyway. It would go thru the speakers but utilize a seperate mic. Most double dins will have the back up cam setup somehow

the sound is okay for now, i have to adjust the Potentioner? spelling. Its on the GMOS harness. I left it at factory setting but i want to turn the dial just alittle bit. volume level is 62 max and im listening to it now at about 50 driving around town. highway is 55 so it does need to be adjusted. Onstar is still nice and clear, CDs are nice and clear, Directions are prompt and loud enough. I love it and definetly dont need the f900 dvd player feature. Ill buy a 32GB SD card and just put videos on that

black08sstc, so you bought the onstar harness? im trying to figure out the bluetooth and onstar thing. i wouldnt need the onstar harness if i'm not keeping my onstar after the trial expires or would i need it for sum reason? also, did u try the bluetooth yet? i wanna know how that all works, does the sound come through the car speakers? and do u have to use the mic that comes with it or can u use the onstar mic that came built in?

The sound comes through the speakers and you have to use the mic that comes with the kit you can't use the onstar mic unless you rewire it. i saw someone do it but it would be easier just to use the mic with the kit

You definetly need the harness, i know it sucks!!! The reason being is the warning chimes play through you speakers and in case of emergencies and stuff onstar is always active i believe. I used the bluetooth, it works pretty well. Im posting a video at the moment that gives people a better idea of the unit

^that harness from what it says does the onstar as well as wire it to fit the factory connector so that doesnt seem too bad.

The harness that is needed for our cars is the GMOS LAN 4 harness. It retains factory door chimes, onstar, steering wheel controls (with adapter) and the pioneer system with tweeters and amp for sub. I wouldnt go with anything else. hold on ill get the crutchfield site

Ya that is what i did, i just took every to best buy and had them install it. But they were telling me that i needed the expensive harness to keep everything and it turns out my steering wheel controls don't work and the onstar doesn't work, but i didn't really care about the onstar
