The Bose Theftlock radio in my 2001 Yukon will no longer play CDs. When I insert a CD the radio displays
"ERR' code. The radio plays fine. Can anyone recommend a good repair shop I can send this radio to?
Are there any upgrades that can be done to the radio unit while it is in for repair?

Any information would be appreciated .

Is there an aftermarket unit that will fit the opening and plug and play?

Yup. Since you have a 2001, you have the single din radio, correct? Any aftermarket single din will work. Just look for the features you'd want, Bluetooth etc. All you'll need is the installation kit with a harness or associated harnesses and you're good to go.

My radio has the built in CD player and the cassette player separate mounted in the lower console. Is there an aftermarket that will fit with cutting the dash up ?

Any single din will fit without cutting the dash. Just need to get the installation kit to install it. The separate cassette player will no longer work. You could either leave it there or pull it out.

he's right, you can probably buy a decent used radio for less than the trouble to try and make that one work again.

I'd recommend this as a decent replacement, you can still play your cd's and it offers all the newer options, Bluetooth, streaming, Pandora, yada yada, all you will need is a install kit and a metra adapter that matches your existing options.

Just FYi you have a Din and Half. So you can go three options get a Din radio and a bezel kit, buy a din and Half radio and you wont need a bezel or you can get a double din radio and modify your dash for it(third is not recommended since you don't want to go crazy). You will also need a wire harness for your vehicle, can not recommend, which one to get because they vary depending on what you have and what you care to keep (Exp. door Chimes). They also make cubby pockets to fill in where the cassette once was. Your last best bet is to go on craigslist and find a old used one or someone parting out their car cause im sure you can get it for cheap. If I still had mine I would of just gave it to you.
