How much should I expect to pay for the aftermarket stereo install wiring kit and the steering wheel radio controls wiring kit for a C6? Just do not want to get reemed by a local install shop .

I am installing a Alpine head unit, amps, and speakers.

Thanks

The Peripheral GMCO if you don't have Onstar goes for about $100 at the famous auction site. The GMAH24 (24B for Bose) goes for about $150. Not sure which one is the steering wheel interface you'd need, but they're usually about $50-75.

I do have Onstar, so it looks like $150 + $50-$75, correct? Is that all I would need?

Thanks

I think I have an answer for you, others will chime in if I get this wrong (I just went through this on my car).

If you want to keep the Onstar, you need:

- Peripheral GMAH24 if you don't have the factory Bose stereo or if you plan to remove or not use the Bose amp

- Peripheral GMAH24B if you plan to keep / use the Bose amp

- Peripheral GMAHCM chime module if you want to have any chimes (seatbelt indicator, door open, etc)

- I don't know what you need for the steering wheel interface.

The GMAH24 was about $115 shipped from eBay. I can't remember exactly what I paid for the GMAHCM module, and I didn't have the steering wheel interface.

Hopefully this helped.

Sorry, I did forget the chime module, which you will need. It looks to go for around $50 as well.
