Swaping out a non-navigation headunit for a navigation one

[Firecracker048]

Good morning,
So my 2019 g70 advanced was at the dealership this week to get some recall work done. While there, i was talking to one of the techs and he doesn't seem to think a head unit swap would be too hard(pulling out the consol and replacing with a nav one). I was wondering if anyone else had any other experiencing doing this? Its def something im looking into.

I don't think they are compatible, assuming you could even find one.

Probably cheaper to trade the car for what you want. Head units are not cheap. Be sure to check out the wiring and antenna too, so the GPS works.

Easier to buy a Garmin.

So the head unit(nav) is fairly cheap enough online. I just didn't know how easy it was to swap out the unit

The swap is easy. The making it work is questionable. Controls go through the computer and unless you are sure of compatibility, could make a mess.

Not the same as upgrading from AM to an AM/FM Spark O Matic radio

Alright I will def take a closer look into it before putting anything in.

Also, is there any way to unlock the turbo boost gauge in the cluster? I can't access the sport tab or even just unlocking the sport tab in general.
