I am looking to upgrade my 2012 Traverse LT stereo system. I am not a huge audiophile, but I like clean music without the real muddy bass (like bass, just very musical bass). The big thing I'm have difficulties with is finding an aftermarket stereo dash kit. I see some installs where the stereo is installed and it does not look well (stereo isn't curved/contoured like the dash, but neither is the bezel on the dash kit). Is there a installation kit that matches the curvature of the dash and allows a nice looking install. It won't look stock, but it will definitely look very clean.
I'm hoping to put in a decent double din navigation receiver with a backup camera, SiriusXM, and use the steering wheel controls (requires adapter). Then, I'm moving on to the speakers (Focal, JL Audio or other).
Car apparently was a fleet model, so XM/OnStar was deleted. I need the satellite radio for sure. But, the stock audio quality is horrible. Speakers will help, but I need more from the stereo as well.
On a side note (first post) - this place is pretty awesome. Been browsing for a while, and a lot of positive reviews from these forums sold me on the Traverse.
After 3 days of being a Traverse owner, I love this thing!
