Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)The adapter came with all the harnesses to connect to the factory deck in my 2005 Avalanche. Some of the clearences were a little tight but this had nothing to do with the unit. There was plenty of cable to locate the unit in the center console, out of harms way and out of site. I had to drill a hole to put the ipod connector in the center console armrest. The unit worked as advertised and was also upgraded to show Artist and Title when you push the DISP button. Unfortunately you have to push it for every song but I believe this is an issue with the Factory Head Unit not the PA11-GM. The instructions are a spotty but if you read them completely it is all there. I was able to connect the unit as XM1 and it works as described. XM2 is still available for XM radio if I wanted to throw my money away on that. The truck also has a DVD player in the back seat connected to the factory head unit, this still works also. As an added bonus the factory system supports selecting audio from the back seat. The PA11-GM/IPOD is available from the back seat as XM1 also. I created a couple of playlists and I can select them like giant CDs. If I am listening to the radio and the kids want to listen to the IPOD they can choose it separately from the back seat. If I had one complaint it would be not being able to see what song is playing without having to push the DISP button.

The PA11 series iPod interfaces provide direct connection for an iPod plus an optional audio source such as satellite radio, DVD, or video game system. Both the iPod and the additional audio source can be selected from the factory radioâ?TMs front panel. The interface adapter connects the iPod to your factory radio as if it were a CD changer, allowing direct selection of iPod playlists through the radioâ?TMs preset (or disc) buttons and is compatible with iPod models featuring the dock connector, including the iPod nano and 5G iPod video. For XM ready or equipped radios, the PA11GM also displays artist/title information on the radio's front panel. There are two operating modes available for the interface, Playlist Mode and Direct Mode. Playlist Mode uses the controls on the factory radio to provide basic navigation functions including song up/down, playlist up/down, repeat, shuffle, scan, and FF/REW functions. Direct Mode uses the iPod's click wheel to navigate through the iPod's menus and select songs, artists, playlists, etc. and the radio buttons are used only for volume, bass and treble. Both modes still charge the iPod while connected, and stops one hour after the iPod is paused to prevent over-charging.
