Good luck.
I almost bought an MP3 capable unit from a guy on another forum. (wanted it real bad) Decided to check into the “re-program” before buying. What a shock: Two different area Hummer dealers/same ownership…..$127.00 at one, $70+ at the other. They also warned me that the program might not take and the unit might not work. None of the other GM dealers in the area would touch it cause it was a Hummer. Needless to say, I didn’t buy the unit. I’d rather spend the money on an iPod interface. Please let us know how this turns out for you...... |

I had hoped there was a manual way to key in the VIN by way of the radio controls, but if there
was....no one would cop to it.......I guess you cant expect someone to instruct you on how to defeat a GM security feature............;) I knew it was a pretty simple proceedure and thought they might do it for free since I'd just bought the car from them2 months earlier. Oh well......they DO give good loaners though. |

You won’t know till you ask them. Since I hadn’t bought that one yet, it made more sense for me put the money elsewhere. You on the other hand, have one sitting in your lap.......Therein lies your motivation.. You buy it from Nice Guy? |
RE: h3 radio swap?
Hey I just did the same thing last week! I just traded my 08 solstice gxp for my 06 H3 and then i wanted a 4 cd changer. Got one off ebay and installed it. It did the same thing. Took it to the hummer dealership, took them 20 minutes and $35 and it was unlocked. But I did suffer the volume loss compared to the orginal one. Which I need to figure out how to resolve that. And that I am wanting XM really bad but the antennae is the same design as the one I have on my solstice. The shark fin. But don't know how to tell if the XM wire is ran for it or not.
