Hello, I have a 2003 Avalanche with factory BOSE (I think premium because of the word BOSE on the door speakers), and a 6 disc cd changer. It also has On* which I dont care about because the version I have is obsolete and I have never paid for it anyway, and rear audio controls which our daughter sometimes uses.
I would like to replace the head unit with this:

Or something very close.
I would like to retain the BOSE speakers/amp and the door chimes and rear controls.
I have several questions:
Can I retain the BOSE speakers/amp?
If the new unit has steering wheel controls, do I need an additional adapter for that?
What mounting hardware (adapters, wire harnesses, faceplate, etc) do I need?
What problems can I expect?
Any other info?
I pretty sure I will have other questions sooner or later.
Thanks for any help.
Edit: also, would a head unit that flips out interfere with the shifter? I've read that some do, is that correct?
