Great Replacement Navigation System

Based on my experience, this replacement navigation system is worth the investment. The programming is simple and the interface is easy to navigate. The audio quality is clear and the screen is responsive. One downside is that the price is a bit steep. However, the convenience of having a reliable navigation system in my car is worth it. Overall, I highly recommend this product.

Pros
  • Easy navigation, clear audio, responsive screen.
Cons
  • Steep price.

The missing parts are included in the picture.

My kit did not include camera wiring harness or radio booster cables. Everything else was great but overall a very disappointing experience.

Pros
  • Retains rear seat audio controls.
Cons
  • updates.

Doesn't work as advertised

The instructions for the rp5-gm32 are horrible and don't have a diagram showing the wire pinouts. The instructions state that the blue wire is not used, but in fact the blue wire is needed to drive the factory Bose amp. Also, and this is a big issue, there's no cable to power the rear camera. The instructions say this kit supports rear camera, but no rear camera + instruction to the head unit to display the image from the rear camera. I had to rummage around under the dash for a long time to…

Pros
  • Will hold OnStar when replacing factory radio
Cons
  • Crumpled
