Default Double din in dash

Hey Guys, new to the C6 world and bought a Pioneer NEX. When it comes to the installation kit/trim is there a preference over scosche or metra? Also What is the correct wiring harness for a 1lt without onstar or bose? The only other item I need to buy is the antenna connector correct? Thanks for the help!

Since no one else has replied, the best advice is to go DoubleDMods, a vendor here on the forum. He will supply you with everything you will need to do the easiest and best conversion, all at the best prices too.

I would go with the Metra, the newer model matches the oem dash better.

Several choices, but BEST option for you IMO is the C2R-GM24

Correct. However, since you'll be doing all the other work, adding a backup camera would just take a few more minutes
