Default Will Delphi TNR800 fit in a 2003SSEi?

Hi Everyone! I'm axiously awaiting the delivery of my first Bonneville... a 2003 SSEi. Its being shipped from Chicago to New Jersey this week. I'd love to add a Delphi TNR800 to the car to give it that factory nav look. Does anyone know if this unit will fit in my new ride? Thanks!! See ya kno the road!

Default Whoa... you are my hero!

DD -

Do you have any reasons to believe that this will not work with a 2003 Bonneville?

Holy cow, your GXP looks awesome with the Delphi Nav!! Looks like a TON of work... disassembling the dash... breaking out the Dremel.... creating your own wiring harness... holy crap... you even replaced the LEDs on the Delphi!! You are Superman.

Did you have to crack the case on the Delphi to install the red LEDs?

Tell me one more thing.... did you have a wiring diagram to help you ? Or are you an electrical engineer or something

Sincerely sweet work. Thanks for sharing it with the rest of us.

No reason at all that it won't work as long as you have the Monsoon sound system. The TNR800 requires an amplifier.

Thanks for the compliment It was a fair amount of work, although not as much as I initially anticipated. I'd have to guess I spent about 7 hours on the actual install once I had all the parts together. Changing the LED'* added about two more including assembly and disassembly (not including research for parts).

No, the faceplate trim snaps onto the housing of the unit. Everything was easily accessible with just this part removed.

I did have the wiring diagram for the vehicle. I've done other related types of projects on other Bonnevilles which helped a lot. My previous occupation was in the computer and electronics industry which didn't hurt either.

It would be great to see a few more Bonnevilles out there with this option! PM me if you go ahead with this and have any questions
