07 gmc newb questions..

Recommended Posts

Hey guys. My dad just recently asked me to put a stereo in his early 07 gmc Sierra for his birthday. I'm not new to car audio at all but I haven't messed with many newer vehicles.

I'm just doing a simple head unit and speaker swap. But back when I had my envoy I had people warn me that I would need an adapter or it would mess up the on star and door chimes. I did the swap normal and had no issues.

Can I do this on his truck or do I need anything special other than a harness antenna adapter and dash kit? If it was my own vehicle i wouldn't be as worried but since it's not I wanted to make sure.

Would this work ? http://www.crutchfield.com/p_794HRRGM5/iDatalink-ADS-HRN-RR-GM5-Interface-Harness.html?tp=3486

I'm embarrassed to be asking these questions since I've been doing stereos for about 8 years in my own cars but mustangs and camaros are simple and I've never had to bypass anything in the past other than parking brake wires lol
