Default C6 vert suggestions

Have a 2010 GS vert 4LT that I would like to upgrade the head unit at least. I would need the ability to play CD’s, Bluetooth, nav or Apple Car play. Also don’t want to spend a fortune.
TIA

I suggest you start looking here. https://www.crutchfield.com/g_182350...FFSize|Double- Find one that has all the features you're looking for in the price range you want to pay. I personally prefer Pioneer myself. One thing to note about Crutchfield is their "What Fits Your Car" search, is that it isn't accurate, it may say certain models won't fit, which isn't correct, any double DIN unit should fit.

Define "fortune." Much easier to source a good HU when you know what kind of budget you're working with.

$500 isn't going to get you much, personally, I'd suggest spending some more, and getting a better quality head unit. On top of that expense, you'll also need to get an interface, this being the most commonly used one https://www.crutchfield.com/p_541RP5...Interface.html Then you'll also need to get dash kit https://www.crutchfield.com/p_120953...-Dash-Kit.html And while you have everything apart, I highly recommend also installing a backup camera, I'm sure you'd regret not doing it later. Let us know on what you decide for a head unit, there maybe a few other tips and tricks we can offer to help with the install depending on what you get.
