Default Bose adapter for 2002 C5

About to put a Jensen VM9510TS in my 2002 C5. Isn't there a Bose interface adapter I can use to still use the bose amps and speakers? If so, what's the name of it and where can I pick one up?

Thanks,
Jamey

Not sure about your unit but the Soundgate GMCRV1 is the one for most aftermarket units

That's the one I used for a Pioneer HU.

With the soundgate unit, is it simply plug and play with the wiring harness behind the factory headunit or do you have to do anything with the bose amp? Are there any adjustments to be made on the soundgate, if so what are they and what do you adjust it to?

Thanks Again,
Jamey

good question. I am installing a alpine 9835 HU in my 2002. Do I need to get that soundgate chimes (GMCHIME) adapter too ? Is the gmcrv1 the ONLY thing (besides maybe the chimes) to get my alpine installed ? after the install, will it sound decent integrated with the bose stuff ?
