Mods: If this needs to go somewhere else, please move it. I could decide if I should put it here or in "The Lounge"

Last week my wife had a little boo-boo. Needless to say, I don't have my Saturn any more. But I did get a 2002 Impala today. Wife and kids were ok, just a little shaken up. But without further adu..... here are the pics.

Here is the new (to us) car.

PS. How difficult is it to switch out the stock HU to an after market on this car??

****!

The impala radio has all the chime features and bs, so you have to get a expensive wiring harness if you want to keep those features and put the stock radio in the trunk of somewhere.

actually, you do have to get an expensive wiring harness, but get the one at tweeter where you do not have to relocate the factory HU. The malibu I have I had to do that. Search around for it and you'll find it.

np, it will have it's own little speaker you can mount inside your center console, your chimes will come through that instead of the car's speaks.
