Anyone know of any good replacements to the stock double din receiver in the Yukon Denali? I’d like Bluetooth with capability for DVD and backup camera.

Determine your budget, and then go to Crutchfield.com and see what head units are available in your price range. You will also need an interface module to allow continued use of your steering wheel controls, and Crutchfield can advise you on the unit, as well. Crutchfield is very competitive price-wise, and their Techs on the phone are very knowledgeable.

I've had Kenwood head units installed in my last 2 trucks and one car, and they have performed flawlessly in all 3 installations.

Do you guys know if there is an aftermarket replacement for the fold down lcd screen in the middle of the truck? I’d like to upgrade it to something I could stream on with a bigger screen.

there is nothing plug n play but larger 3rd party flip down screens have been made for decades

the headunit I linked above is a good price, the only thing newer is the 8600 and the only difference is it has "alexa" built in and it almost twice as much $1200
if you don't want dvd, nav, wireless android auto/carplay and no dual zone, then there are much cheaper options out there. you get what you pay for........
as mentioned kenwood makes a comparable unit also
sony is meh,,,,,
anything else is less than meh....
at least if you want it to integrate with the stock system and still have rse
if you want a "floater" there are more options
alpine used to make a integrated kit, not sure if it is still made or available anymore they were kinda pricey.

I went with the 10" Stinger, primarily for looks.

That’s sick! Who makes it? Does it allow for control over the normal functions on the wheel? Can it control the rear flip down?

stingersolutions.com makes it. My steering wheel functions work, but I think they added an adaptor of some sort. I don't have a flip down anymore so I can't comment on that.

@NASTY GM do you have any issues with the shifter interfering with the screen on the stinger?

All these floating screens are sweet but it seems like some stick out further than others and some reviews/images on the web actually show the shifter touching the screen while in drive. Of course different dash kits locate the screen in different vertical positions on the dash.
