JPCustoms went out of business and I need a GM electronics guru to help me with a project I'm working on.

Well their website is down, shop is closed and the phone is disconnected.
Now I don't know for sure whether they went belly up or just went of business but with the economic climate the way it is I'd guess belly up.
I can and have done work like this before, I just need info on what part numbers and what parts fit what.

Actually, they're the same plugs as long as you pick a Databus harnessed donor truck. '03-07 Sierra/Silverado, '02-'06 Tahoe/Yukon/Escalade. They do require reflashing and a knowledge of what type of amps are in your truck (Bose/Lux/Non-Lux). Plus adding a VSS wire.

I am sorry to disagree with you here. I have a 06 TNR right here in front of me a radio from an 05 Rendezvous that I used in my 05 Sierra. The back end of this radio looks nothing like the one in the Buick. There are no extra open sockets like the Sierra radio.
Oh, by the way the Buick radio is a Fujitsu made in China radio not a Dephi. Now this really pissed me off for sure.

I'm not really sure that we are in disagreement. I specifically listed the donor trucks in my post.

well after digging around for a few i think i found the problem you have one from a lucerne which using the same harness as caddi cars do and use i a much different navi unit than the other cars the rendevous and century have the same harness as the trucks but the lucerne has 2 large plug not one large and one small one

you can see here
