[QUOTE="mdephillips1995, post: 18987, member: 6524"] Problem solved. I found an unlocked radio on eBay from someone in Colorado. After exchanging messages and talking on the phone it turns out my car had a 2013 radio in it. The 2012 radio has a different serial number. He sold me the unlocked radio and it worked upon installation. I'm able to listen to the radio, CD player, stream music from the phone, use all of the personalization menus, and use the phone via Bluetooth. Only issue now is OnStar is programmed in Spanish so all of the commands to pair the phone via Bluetooth are in Spanish. I figured it out and can still use the phone. I called OnStar and they suggested having the dealer look at changing the language. No big deal since I don't subscribe to OnStar and the rest of the radio menus are all in English. The part number is 22869279 GM977A. [/QUOTE]
