Anyway, when upgrade to the Alpine, I only use the Motorola plug. Taped off the other plug with black electrical tape. The tunning is fine. I get all stations the factory radio get plus better reception for both AM and FM.

You may be on to something....I think the GM plug is actually a "mini-motorola-male"....Anyways, I just ordered a Y Adapter and a GM Mini -> Aftermarket adapter. I ordered from nugadgets.com. Great price for the items but shipping was almost $9!! Anyways - hopefully it'll work. Thanks for the good advice.
