A farily intimidating project for someone without any experience in taking apart cars, but with the help of the guys at navplus forum I ended up doing the entire project myself! The Nav system works perfectly (I bought a new US-spec unit). It is almost worth the upgrade for the MUCH better radio.

Default Not directly with the in-dash drive. You need another adaptor and source.

Default I am confused, what is better about the RADIO part, the AMPS are off unit, Aren't they?????
and the bass unit is in the trunk with it's own amp.

Does the Nav have a better CD A=D converter?????

Default Still Bose amp/speaker. But as several have posted, the
audio quality seems better. Previously I had a difference in volume level when using XM vs. Radio/CD and that issue is totally gone. XM sounds significantly better - much brigher and cripser than previous. Also, just the user-interface with the new system is better (presets, station tuning, etc.)
