    I've heard about some aftermarket companies doing the OEMish aftermarket upgrades that allow you to keep your factory bluetooth and had the factory look and theme to it. Anyone know the name of the company that does this?

    I don't know the name, but why not change it out for a nice aftermarket double din w/ bluetooth and navigation. Most nice 7" double din's look nice in the dash and you can mount the microphone in the OEM location.

    Word, just an FYI a lot of aftermarket systems with bluetooth do audio and hands free, etc. Well pretty much does everything the MFD does.

    I would suggest using a processor to retain your factory headunit. You can replace your speakers, add an amp all while keeping the features you already use.
