What do I need for deck swap If I keep the factory amp what all do I need to replace the stock deck with an aftermarket one? I know the obvious 1.5 to 1 den, plus the antenna adapter, but is there a special wiring harness I would need? or just the regular GM wiring harness to go from CD player to stock wiring harness?

If you want to retain steering wheel controls, you'd also need an adapter for that.
PAC SWI-X is the universal IR steering wheel control adapter. It'll work with most aftermarket headunits that have an IR sensor.
PAC also makes brand specific wired units as well (ex: SWI-PS is for Pioneer headunits with the remote port on the back). The wired brand-specific unit works by plugging into the aftermarket headunit's wired remote port (therefore, make sure the headunit has a wired remote port before getting one of these wired adapters).
