Wow, just wow.
The parts had the same number and it was just the amplification that had problems, the rest worked normally, the failure was only due to the amplifier.

Why not just take it to a Chevrolet dealership and fix all these problems and be done with this thread?
Replace a part with another that are exactly the same, I don't see where the problem is.
In Europe, there is no longer a Chevrolet dealer, Opel is taken over by GM, which in theory must take over Chevrolet.

New parts in Europe are impossible to find, you have to order in the USA, there are no more Chevrolet dealers in Europe and the warranty is three years.

It's not to save repairs, if I order a part that I know how to replace myself, why go to a repairer, you go to your dealer to replace a fuse? Unless you have two left hands, you do it yourself!
I replaced my fuse box, there is a "dealer" in Luxembourg, a fuse box, 600$ and 5 to 6 weeks to have it, ordered in the USA, all costs, 152$ and received in 15 days .
Do you think I spend $10 to save $1?
Don't say anything without knowing!

The Camaro in Europe costs + or - $4000 more than in the USA.
It is no longer imported, so no more parts, if you want one, you have to order it in the USA and take all the steps to ensure that it meets European standards.
