Not at all. I wanted nav. and Bluetooth and sat. Radio so I decided to upgrade. Glad its done. Sounds great and still looks 100% stock. Now I can enjoy my new ride.

Too late for what?

Does the radio/Nav unit look 100% stock?

I assume from you earlier posts you have BOSE so you are in fact re-wiring the system to each speaker to bypass the amp rather than using a converter. You need to isolate the wiring too, are you running all the wiring along one side of the car?

I ran all new wiring, new amp, new speakers in dash, doors, rear seat and installed a subcompact powered sub. It sounds awesome

but I am not very happy with the sub and will exchange for a JBL or JL sub. Here is a picture of the receiver. All the speakers still have the original covers.
