Looking to swap out my head unit in the Silverado. Gonna go with an apple play radio because I found it to be very convenient in a Acadia that I was recently in. Any recommendations? I don’t need anything to crazy. Just need the Nav, backup camera and blue tooth.

I had a previous version in a lesser model and it was great. Fiance has another model as well in her car, everything just works well.

AVH-4201 on Amazon is $500. Nav not built in but has apple carplay so you just use that. I have the 4200 and very happy with it.

Cool. Thank you. Do you know if the factory camera plugs in? Or is an adapter needed. Either way that’s probably the route I’m gonna go.

Looks like they sell an adapter.

Also, don't forget to buy a parking brake bypass. They are only a few bucks and will simplify the install.
