Question PCM 2.1 to 3.0 upgrade - How?

I am investigating if it's possible to upgrade my 2008 GTS's PCM 2.1 head unit to the new PCM 3.0 touchscreen. I find that the navigation on the 2.1 is limited and very cumbersome to navigate the navigation . Does anyone know the difficulty and cost of such an endeavor? I've checked other forums and found them to be vague at best.

Additionally I have recently had a mOsbridge BT/iPod interface installed in my GTS. Will the wiring for the mOsbridge require changing?

Thanks in advance.

Garmin is in business to help you. Do like some of the rest if us do - use the so-called nav unit on the dash to locate streets in major cities, sometimes activating the accident-causing and semi-worthless "map cursor" to do it.

Then if you want good maps and good functionality, you reach onto the floor behind you and grab the *REAL* GPS and its mount and throw it up there and go. There is no way that that thing in the Cayenne will ever be as good as a real GPS. There are a half-dozen reasons why. Or maybe a dozen. I am not going to think for another 3 minutes to come up with the other six.
