Terry,You will need an installation wiring harness kit, which is a pig tail connector which plugs into the factory wiring but the other end will have to be soldered and heatshrinked to the Kenwood wiring pig tail connector. Also an radio installation DASH kit which adapts the Kenwood to fit you Silverado. METRA is the brand name I used to install the same Stereo in out 2003 F250. Make sure you have an afternoon for installation, take your time, measure and trim slowly if needed. A Dremel Tool works nice for such modifications. All in all install was not too bad, just go slow! Use attention to detail! You'll be happy!

Are you replacing a factory radio or do you already have an aftermarket stereo? If factory, you will need kit to install in dash. You will also need a factory harness adapter so you do not cut into the factory stereo harness

You may have to buy another radio, if your current one does not have a RCA input/output

A good source of information for you in terms of what you'll need would be Crutchfield. If you go to their site, enter in your vehicle information then shop for this radio, you'll see other items needed to complete your installation. If you want to use your steering wheel controls you'll need some adapters, as well as if you have Onstar and want to continue to use it, since it interfaces with your factory head unit there's an adaptor for that as well. But if you don't plan to use any of the things that I just mentioned then you will just need an install kit for your truck. That usually consists of a mounting box that the Alpine with mount into, then the box simply mounts into the dash the same way your factory unit did. You'll need power and ground, there's a plug you can buy that plugs into your factory harness like the stock head unit would and it has the wires that you'll need to hook the Apline up to. The other alternative is to cut the factory plug or splice into it, much cleaner installation if you just buy the plug plus if you sell the car and keep the factory equipment you can easily reinstall it for the sale. If you're not installing an after market amp you can use the power from the Alpine head unit to power the factory speakers. They make adapter plugs for that as well so that you're not cutting and splicing, again, much more clean and simplistic. You don't have to purchase the plugs and kits from Crutchfield but you can get the info from there then shop Amazon. Sometimes Amazon is cheaper but sometimes Crutchfield is the same price or cheaper, just depends. Also Crutchfield has great tech support and customer service, they'll treat you well. Hope that answers your questions.

Jonathan, I'd suggest visiting the company's page at www.cowonamerica.com, which (to me) seems to indicate that you get earbuds, an A/C adapter, a small plastic snap-on docking port called a "subpack" (which costs $9 to replace and is necessary to download your tunes to the player), the necessary cables, and the softward CD. Anything else, including a remote, may be purchased for a few (or not so few) extra bucks.

It all depends on your vehicle. I had a 2006 Chevy so I needed a install kit to fill in the extra dash space, a wire kit to hook up to the OnStar system and another box to make the signal noise.

That should work fine. If it was me I'd mount the speakers and xm unit to a board or in a box so it stays put in the work truck. Less tangled wires too.

It is a standard double din stereo, so just take a look at your truck and determine whether it has a single din or double din opening... if it looks like it's bigger than a regular cd player, then this is the right size because typically all cars fit only one of those two sizes. You will definitely need a mounting kit and wiring harness, but when you order these, make sure that you order the correct size to fit your make and model of your car. They usually will be marked for a range of years for a particular model... I hope this makes sense!

You are supposed to install this kit to the factory cd changer wiring plug (replaces factory cd changer). Kit will give you usb connectivity option for MP3 or flash drives.

I took it to a professional. I already had a Pioneer screen head unit. It took him 30min and he charged $100 to put both in.

If his current aftermarket stereo was put in correctly you shouldn't need anything. You can reuse the wiring harness and adapter for the new one.

Will this interface kit work with the Delco UX1- AM/FM Stereo, Seek & Scan, Auto-Reverse Cassette, Graphic Equalizer, Clock; Factory installed in a 1993 Chevy K2500 Silverado Pickup Truck?

I've got no idea...I bought a used Chevy Tahoe with a DVD system and these hooked up without any configuration. No clue what you'd need at home. Sorry can't be more useful....

As far as I know you must purchase a wiring harness specific to your vehicle. I got mine at walmart. Round $15. One side wires to stereo and other plugs to your factory harness to keep you from having to cut wires. It's pretty simple. You will have to do this with any stereo you buy. This is a good one I think for the money. Not many for the price have bluetooth capability and hd radio. That is why I bought one.

Go pioneer.com/parts. Type in your unit model number and it will give you all the compatible components for it.

Dear Robert, I am showing that this receiver would not fit your Silverado. Please let me know if I can be of any additional assistance. Regards, Eric Cohen World Wide Stereo
