Ok guys... I'm looking for people with first hand experience, not theoretical thoughts that you read once on a Cummins forum.
I am thinking about upgrading from my factory head unit to an aftermarket stereo. My question is what will I lose.
I know there are harnesses to use redundant sound controls on steering wheel, but will I lose any of the following.
1. Factory bluetooth capability
- I understand aftermarket stereo's offer Bluetooth, but will it use a factory mic or do I have to install an aftermarket mic? Will the steering wheel controls still pick up and hang up on the phone?
2. Onstar - Will I lose any functionality in Onstar?
3. Redundant Sound Controls, I know harnesses exist, but does the functionality change. This is really a question who has completed this mod alread.
4. Buzzers, dings, warnings, etc...
If there are any other changes you are aware of, please let me know.
The bluetooth functionality needs to be from someone with experience in 09 and newer trucks.
