Has anyone done one of those? I have a customer who wants to install the Eclipse 9435 D-Din Navi but wants to retain his factory OnStar + Steering Wheel controls. I contacted Metra, they have no harness...

...Please help

I believe that is a GMLAN car, different data bus than the Class II found in most GM vehicles. Right now your only option is radio relocation.

You mean I relocate the radio and connect a speaker to it for the OnStar?
Ok I can rewire the speakers, but what about the steering wheel controls?

Yes, relocate the radio to retain OnStar and connect a seperate speaker. Steering wheel controls can be retained with the PAC swi-x.

My ex once told me I have a perfect face for radio.
