More info is needed, like what are you using to interface into the head unit.

You unplug the cable from the cd changer in the trunk and plug it in to the appropriate end of the new cable you purchased. Plug the remaining end into the ipod adaptor box. Plug the 12 foot cable into the other side of the ipod adaptor box and the remaining end plugs into your ipod. After you test it out you can run the long cable under the carpet and the console. I cut a hole in the bottom of my cup holder and have the end that plugs into the ipod sticking iut through it. You can then rest the ipod in the cupholder, since it isn't any good for holding cups.

Sorry about that. Check over in the audio section. I know there is something over there. I'm not sure if you can hook into the back of the radio, or if you have to get the cable that would run to the back of the car for use with the cd changer and install it. I believe that cable would install somewhere under the passenger side footwell. The audio section should be able to help you out. Good luck.

Its a very straight forward install, I did my install in maybe 25mins, ask them to make sure they have the right switches click, if I remember correct its 3 and 8 need to be swicthed.

Here you go this is what I had to get to "make it work"

Item title: Peripheral PXHGM1 iPAC-OEM PXDP PXDX PAC AB-GM9 GM 9pin

Item title: Peripheral GMH20T Vehicle Cable for CHEVROLET Corvette


The two items above are the ables they said I needed to install it correctly. You only have the GMH20T right? you need the AB-GM9 GM 9 pin

hope thats right but i would ask the seller too.
