Recently bought a 2013 Work Truck Silverado and it has the basic radio...I am semi retiring a 2009 Sierra that has the upgraded sound system w/cd and satellite....can I take the radio out of the 09 and install it in the 13 without any major problems?? Just wondering....Thanks in advance

Any truck radio after 2003 will lock because of the body control module will not let it "talk" to the system. I also think that the radio from the 09 would fit but would need to be reprogrammed by a dealer with a Tech2 tool normally cost less than $75 I would think. Jim
