For Android a straight swap with DSP has proved to be challenging. Some of the Android systems will clearly state will not work with DSP and those that do claim it is compatible also state it will need professional wiring to make it work.

The system I am installing is the Avin Avant-3 and they claim full compatibility with DSP with no wiring modifications and a straight installation. They are back-ordered until the end of the month so we will see.

As far as the factory Navigation retrofit there are several threads here, you should have a look at the amount of work and cost to do that job. I wouldn't want to go through all that effort to end up with a system that has the technology from 2000 but that's just me. If it were easy, a simple plug and play retrofit, it would've already be in my X5 years ago.

I did the factory Navigation retrofit on my E46 back in 2005 and it ended up costing me thousands. It would have been cheaper to add it as an option when I bought it.
