You can try calling them and asking them why it will not fit. Did it say it was a fitment issue, or an issue with the HU not integrating with the bose system?

It will integrate with Bose, it's a matter of having one of the control modules. As long as you have a normal single din slot, I don't see why this wouldn't fit. I assume you already have an after market single din bezzel?

I was thinking the same thing.

No I don't. I just got this car a few week's ago and I plan on replacing the front speakers and taking out the rear speakers, then put 3 8's in the trunk, but I don't know anything about this bose system it came stock with. I don't know no if i have to rewire everything or what, but anyways the radio is still stock and i'm thinking about getting the Pioneer DEH-80PRS, but i like to know will it be compatible with my car. Oh and one more thing yes it's single din.

Thanks for the quick reply and don't Crutchfield give you a dash kit and a harness with a purchase of a radio?

really depends , not always ,especially if you have the onstar or bose systems, because those kits are $100 alone

Your car doesn't need a special adapter to use an aftermarket radio. Metra 70-1858, ridiculously cheap online

If it's a single din & you are replacing everything, might as well do your own wiring while your at it. At this point the Bose system is a non-issue. I did the same for my car, which also came with a Bose system.

I'm new to all this lol, so is this going to be a easy job?

ugh.

What?

Just plan everything out before hand....this will make things easier.

Ok, so I called Crutchfield yesterday and they told me the reason why it won't fit in my car is because it would stick a half of a inch out. Is there any way to get around this??

In my current install my headunit would not fit with the dash kit I have (it was too tight of a fit at the top & the face would not open). I just used other screw holes on the stereo than were intended for my car. This way I was able to fit the radio & the processor's screen in to the double din opening.

So with a little modifying you may be able to make it work. If you buy it from Cruthfield, you can try it & if you don't like it, just return it.
