Default Metra Bose Interface?

I'll soon be installing a new h/u in my 2002 Z06 and am in the search for a bose interface so I can keep the stock speakers for now. I've heard about the soundgate units but supposedly metra makes one and it's pretty cheap. It's metra model number 70-2004. Will this work and anyone have any experience with it?

I don't know about the metra, but I just changed my speakers and have my PAC OEM-1 that I can sell you. It's about 2 years old, works perfect.

Price can be worked out.

Is it pretty easy to wire this up to a Pioneer nav head unit?

I had nothing but problems with the Metra GMOS 4 and even 1. All problems went away when I went with the Peripheral GMCO.

gregm999,

It was wired to a Pioneer Z-2. Really easy, I have the original paperwork with it. Mark

Those are for the C6, OP has a C5, but the Metra vs. Pac/Peripheral is still a good point

If you don't want a used unit, C5bearsfan (Dennis) also sells adapters on his site
