You need to hear more? 212 posts and a website loaded with info is not enough for you?????

I was thinking the same thing, Chris!

Would like some info. On my 03 STS with the factory Nav system, if a bluestar is installed, I will lose the voice command feature of the nav system. Will I also loose the Verbal Route Guidance feature of the Nav system too?

Thanks.

I'm not 100% sure, but I think that the NAV commands are processed by the onstar VCIM. If that's the case, you would lose this because the onstar VCIM needs to be removed to install the BlueSTAR. I don't have NAV so I don't know for sure. A quick test is to disconnect the onstar VCIM and try the nav functions. If you lose functionality, I might have to rethink keeping the VCIM connected somehow.

Here's a nice step by step on removing onstar in CTS.
Once removed, simply plug the BlueSTAR in its place.

RustyBlazerDude--

This is an awesome idea! I've been looking for something like this forever!!

I have a 2001 Cadillac Catera. Are you still looking for beta testers? [email removed by admin] - do not post your email address on forums. The bots can easily figure out what you did and send you unlimited amounts of spam.

These have been selling on the costartech website for a while now, so I doubt that any beta testing is happening. Pony up the $249...it's well worth it!

I went to the Costar.com web site, and I'm still a little confused about what systen will work with my 2000 Eldorado.
Will I need an extra harness?
Also......I couln't get an email link....does anyone have a phone number to this company?
Thank you......Sal

You'll need the Class 2 kit and the GM lever lock cable.

Hey, can you remove the email addresses rom the above post? I don't want spam! Just link to contacts page.
Thanks!!!!!!!!

chazglenn3 · #**225** (**permalink**) 03-21-09, 01:26 PM

Looks like I need moderator help to remove the e-mail addresses, Chris. The "edit" button is gone. I'll send a PM to Ranger to remove them for me...sorry!
