Definity NOT plug-in-play!
The stock setup has the HU and tuner as separate items.
So the speaker wires/antenna/etc do not go to the HU.
If you remove the tuner, then you'll need to jumper or run other wires like ignition, 12V, lighting control/etc. If its bose, then the speakers are 2 ohm. The schematic diagram from the service manual helps alot here!

I don't post too much but I figured I'd share my new upgrade from the bose HU....a Pioneer AVH-P3200BT DVD recevier with bluetooth, USB, and SD memory slot.
Its awesome! Makes the car look good!
Plus the background is whatever jpeg I want it to be!
Now it is a corvette racing logo.
Enjoy...

Did you do, or have done the installation? It looks very cool and considering the Bose in my 90 is going out and doesn't sound very good this might just be the replacement.
Did you change the speakers and or any modifications? Any input you can provide would be appreciated.
Great looking.

I also had the bose HU, this upgrade was a big improvement.
Speakers are also updated.
Ok, I'll find my install notes and try to post them when I get a chance...

ill be looking to upgrade my radio soon.
Flamered90 had a kenwood model that actually had a volume ****. His unit also had GPS unit integrated, bluetooth, and could add-on a satellite radio.
I like the idea of a volume **** vs. a +/- toggle switch.
One big issue with aftermarket radio's is 'boot-up' time.
IMHO a radio should turn on the instant I push the power button. Not boot up like dumb **** WINDOWS on my PC.
