so after reading that thread u posted i will need the following? seeing as im a 07 with the Pioneer system
Single DIN kit number
Metra = 99-3302
07+ Cobalt's need the Chrysler antenna adapter
Metra = 40-CR10
Scoshe = CRAB
7.) Is there another solution other then the pricy gm lan harnesses for 07+ vehicles?
Yes you can buy the regular harness that will plug in but you will loose your door chimes.
Metra = 70-2202

I think the only reason you need the expensive one is if you have onstar. I have the pioneer system and i bought the cheap one and didn't lose my door chimes or anything.

see thats the thing im not 100% sure which harness i got cuz i got it from a local audio shop that they "said" would work.. they then wired it onto my HU right away and i went home thinking that all was well.. i guess not
the airbag sensor was always plugged in
also when the tuner or cd player was on the speedo/gas gauge/tach would all drop down to zero like the car was off.. wtf

is the deck/harness compatable with the car? i know there was something about a deck/harness i bought it was fully compatable with my vehicle and lil **** when i put my window down the music would stop for a few seconds but the bass would keep going. maybe your **** is either hooked up wrong or the deck/adapter thing is not compatible with your car.
just my .02. i could be wrong thou. just trying to help.
