GM dosent approve of "burned" or "copied" cd's in any of their cd players. Yes I know they have MP3 radios and all but theres a bulletin out about it.

Let me add this, GM radios won't always read burnt discs and they can jam the cd player. Hence the bulletin.

If you burnt it and it dosent work in there, then it won't work in there ever. Most new cars are like this.

Is it a pain in the ass to put in? I did ones before on cavaliers and blazers but not these with the amp and stuff, cause i know nissans had the bose speakers and i hated doing those, plus the fact that the whole dash looks so bland without anything there lol.

If you want to listen to your music that much invest in a good Cd Deck, if you want to skip the cd's and just plug your Ipod in and listen to that then get a cd deck with Ipod jack

I'll admit I've gotten burnt cd's to work in my radio that I myself burnt, but my fiance's sister tried playing one of her burnt cd's and it almost got stuck in my radio.
