I have a 00 Camaro ss with the monsoon sound system with the 12 disc changer in the back and want to know if i replace the factory radio unit with a better aftermarket one will i still be able to use my much loved steering wheel controls and 12 disc changer???? Thanx

 

Do you really have to post the same thing multiple times in different categories?

Repost:
There are kits out there to keep that functionality, but I have never replaced the monsoon system.

If you are just looking for iPod/iPhone/iPad & AUX inputs, the best option is USA-Spec, which plugs into the CD Changer port, also has a adapter cable which should keep the CD Changer functionality too. I have this for my RS & SS -- works for me.

Cool thanks. Well i posted in the audio section and saw theres not much traffic through there so i reposted it. What my concern was i was thinking of replacing the head unit to a better one, I had a 95 z28 with the premium bose and i replaced the head unit because the cd player stopped reading cd's and the new deck made a world of a difference with the facorty set up, thinking the monsoon may be the same way. But i do not want to loose those two functions on my SS. So yeah.

 

There are several aftermarket companies that make addional harnesses so you can keep your steering wheel controls. I have a kenwood DVD in my jeep and I found a aftermarket adapter that I only had to tap into one wire from the jeep harness to make it work.
