SlickGT1 is on a distinguished road
I don't know how the nav is shit. One it works. I have taken the car on multiple trips without a hiccup. It didn't get lost, it got me around detours, and all that. I have a factory AUX port, so I can play music from my iphone. Really, what else do you need. It also plays MP3s from the CD changer, although I don't use the CD changer at all. I have it loaded with a bunch of CDs just in case. I rarely turn on music at all. Most of the time just because my baby wants to hear some music. Clearly OBC is not useless. You now can't set clock. You now can't run any of the OBC diagnostics tests, or can you? You can never reset your gas mileage. This is stuff that I use all the time.

Plus when you go to sell the car, I promise you that there will be a ton of people that will look at an aftermarket unit, as a piece of shit. Your price when selling the car will drop a cool grand because of this. That is if people even want to look at a car that has been "butchered". When I was buying mine, there was a Lemans blue one, that someone did the same thing to the nav. I didn't even bother looking at it. It sold, I think, on ebay, for $3k less than I paid for my car. Think about this.
