I bought this for a 05 impala Base. It went in pretty easy. All i really wanted was a touch screen that i could play my ipod through and this is this perfect fit. Its easy to navigate and sounds better then my stock head unit for sure. the only CON that i found so far is that there is 4 lame backgrounds and i dont think you can add some. But thats not really a big deal. Great product for the price for sure.
