Default compatable radios

I have a 99 vert that im thinking about putting a more current stock stereo with the rds capable( the thing that lets u see what song is playing when some stations broadcast it) and im wondering if you can just put one in from another vette of a newer year or does it require some sort of dealer adjustments.does anyone here have any experience with this? And what year did the RDS become standard on the stereos? Thanks in advance, Normand

There is an Audio/Electronics section under General Corvette in the Forums menu. You might have better luck posting there.
