That can't be right as then why would Scosche sell the Onstar module if you could not hear it?? The sounds must come off the their harness and at least be at the X3 in the back to draw it from.

If the Scosche kit is like the Metra, it does exactly what I'm suggesting that you do. It takes the two wires that would normally go to the OEM radio and mixes that signal with the aftermarket radio's RCA out.

Also, the chimes will come out of the speaker on the back of the HVAC controls. And don't worry, it's plenty loud. You are correct here FTW. The Scosche kit does not send the Onstar signal to the radio. The CAMOSM module piggybacks the OnStar sounds/etc. on the radio output speaker level wiring. That is why I'm saying you should use the X3 RCA's to mix in the OnStar sounds.

The Scosche kit harness takes the speaker outputs from the radio and sends them directly back to the X3. It does not convert them to RCA's nor does the Scosche harness accept RCA's. I'm pretty sure that the reason Scosche did it this way is because the factory amp can take high or low level as input without issue.

So this tells me that the Scosche harness must get the onstar voice from on of the 2 connectors that plug into the car in the dash. I like how we are all "working this out" though |

If it works out, I may just run a small amp (like the factory amp) to the center channel and use it for OnStar only.

As for the Metra kit chimes being loud enough, I'm sure they are, but I would still send that signal to the 3Sixty.3, to get a more refined experience. I think an aftermarket HU should be better than stock in every way. I shouldn't have to downgrade to some 1980's speaker or relay to mimic my turn signal and chimes sounds. |

I've been thinking about how to get the 3Sixty to properly mix the OnStar input. When setting up the 3Sixty (and MS-8), you play a CD that has a special audio track that helps the unit properly set input levels. My fear is that the audio signal coming from the OnStar wires will be too loud or even too soft. It's really all speculation at this point, but I aim to find out this weekend.
