03 Yukon SLE - Which BOSE do I have (is it possible to check it using VIN)? :)

[Konrad]

Hi All

I have a 03 Yukon with BOSE system.
However the previous owner replaced the radio (2din pioneer with bluetooth, spotify integration, etc.) and connected 4 speakers directly to the radio skipping the bose system. In my opinion it sounds like shi...
I'd like to connect this radio to the existing system and I saw that there are PAC-Audio adapters to do that.
This AOEM-GM24 should work, but there is an info on ebay (and I also found it on one of the FB forums):
"Warning chimes will sound through the front left RCA output. Not compatible with premium factory amplified audio systems. To verify if your radio has a premium sound, lower and raise the volume quickly and listen for a lag in response. If the volume has a lag to reach the quick change in volume, the vehicle has a premium sound system. Turning on the rear seat entertainment controls will make the rear outputs of the interface play the second audio source.less"

So, can anyone tell me which bose do I have? Premium? Normal?
VIN: 1GKEK13ZX3J193972

Or maybe there's a better solution?

Another question is why this new radio plays badly (the sound is very flat)?

Thanks

I believe the rpo code in your glove box will tell you what you have.

This. Post a pic or list the "U" codes present in your glove box.

If you had the lux amp, you would see Y91 or y92.

The uq7 is the Bose non-lux amp.

Thanks

However I've found this and now I'm confused a bit it says "premium"

UQ7 SPEAKER SYSTEM,BOSE,PREMIUM PERFORMANCE

Reading your first post a little closer, I'm looking at the wording:

"Not compatible with premium factory amplified audio systems."

I'm guessing this means anything with an amp, whether it's the lux or not. Your Bose system would fall into the "amplified" category.

Hmm. That's not a good news
Is there any other way to make the aftermarket radio work with the BOSE system?
