Works perfectly in my 2007 Yukon

Works amazing! The only complaint I have is that they initially sent me the wrong one but after I received the right one. Everything worked much better than the old radio my Yukon came with (not the stock Raido). Just make sure you order the right adapter.

Pros
  • Nice to use
Cons
  • Modern

Wiring and interface were present

I love the interface, it was easy to install and made life a lot easier than I expected as I have never installed a head unit in a car with steering wheel controls. I couldn't get the mount to work but luckily I accidentally ordered a different one so I just used the other one.

Pros
  • Satisfied so far
Cons
  • -

Didn't work in the 2013 Yukon

I was very excited to have received this kit, wiring to my Kenwood radio was easy. I was going to install it in my 2013 Yukon with Bose and the holes for the bracket didn't match the factory holes. No problem, I just ordered Metra. I connected everything, the steering wheel controls work fine, but there is no sound! The volume went up and down but there was no sound. I looked everything up and it was all wired up to the specs. I bought a speaker plug and bypassed the device and there was sound.

Pros
  • Pleasant
Cons
  • Lots of stuff

Installed Silverado 2007.5 with Bose, installed dual din Atoto head unit and instructions say to use Pioneer connections, I found that 1) The faceplate kit that came with it was complete rubbish, didn't fit properly and I haven't used it, bought a Metra kit instead and they are much better. 2) Crux plays a video that looks like it's plug and play with inspirational music, but again it's not true - everything installed and connected as instructed and 1) Bose didn't work, 2) steering wheelโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Decent performance
Cons
  • Some cons

Will not work on Yukon 2013

Pros
  • Car Electronics Accessory
Cons
  • Crumpled Packaging

Installed 2007.5 Silverado with Bose, double din Atoto head unit installed, and the instructions say use pioneer connectors, here is what I found 1) the supplied bezel kit was total junk, didn't fit properly and I haven't used it, bought a Metra kit instead and they are much better. 2) Crux plays a video that looks like it's plug and play with inspirational music, but again it's not true - everything installed and connected as instructed and 1) Bose didn't work, 2) steering wheel controlsโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Car audio and video installation
Cons
  • Some small things
