    OEM head unit out of 2004 chevy tahoe for sale Best offer

    i hear what you saying but sometimes people want the OEM radio and im willing to sell one for gas money honestly. it works and im honest. if not ittl just sit there. maybe someone will buy it maybe not. maybe someone will pick up a tahoe without any radio and this may be what they desire. its there.

    need advice on a security system

    i think it may be better to get a slight upgrade. ive got through a couple key fobs i tend to damage them and the buttons tend to get stuck. the factory OEM ones. something a little better may work better for me.
