Default RAP with roem-vet1?

Guess I should've done more research, just wrapping up a double din install in my 01, only to find out that the roem-vet1doesn't do retained accessory power. Wish I'd known that before hand...

So, what are my options, cause this is stupid on PAC's part on pretty much every level.

GMRAP (if you can find one) or Accessory Valet ($$$)

The few listings I've turned up for the GMRAP seem to suggest it won't work on an 01?

This is what I've turned up for it:

As for the acc valet, you mean this guy?

Considering I use the new head unit's bluetooth phone option, keeping the RAP may well be worth the money to not have to keep the key in ACC mode.

Metra XSVI provides RAP. I have had one for a couple of years with a Pioneer 8200BT. Works great, sounds great. But be warned, other guys have had problems with this unit...your mileage my vary.

Cool, thanks for the info!

I think I'll pick between the two and get one shortly. Since I've got the bluetooth phone option on the stereo I think I'll add the RAP option. Besides, more than a few times a good song comes on the radio right as you're parking that you want to listen to.

Good to hear, was considering going the TopDownTech route anyways. I've got the window module already in my 'vert, and I've met the owner before (came out to try out modules on our XLR and Avalanche).
