Upgrading base radio

If I bought this upgraded version of the cobalt radio on ebay do you think the dealer would give me any problems installing it? Also how much do you think this radio costs if I bought it from the Chevy dealer?

Actually thats not the base system. The base system did not include the auto volume function, this one does... There are 3 systems base, upgraded & mp3. I was looking at radios and when I contacted the dealer the upgraded radio cost $365. Hope this helps in deciding what to do.

You can get a much better aftermarket headunit for that kind of money.
