2003 gm radio fit into a 92 lumina

[celebrityfest]

well i have a new 2003 radio with vcs and info stuff on it. im trying to see if it willwork for my car. I know all the audio wires for speakers but what about a power wire to fire it up. is it possible.

[grandprixnyc]

what car is it from? If its a 1.5 din, it should "fit" but would look very out of place in the old Lumi dash. If its the double din (like from a bonnie) it won't fit. Speed Sound and things like that would need to be wired in, as old cars dont have the provisions for that.

And the newer ones go through the BCM.

so that BCM has a ground that powers it up? because i just cant run the orange wire for it to work like i said only the clock works and it resets when i cut off the car for a bit and turn it back on.

You will also likely have to flash it to be VIN free.

The BCM tells the radio when to turn on. The newer RDS radios do not have a switched power wire because of this.

 

And yes, as Chris said, you'll need a tech 2 to at least disable the theftlock in the radio.
