My 2010 has lost the visual on the screen, so I need a new radio. It's just the base model cd player and was wondering if all the hook ups are in the dash for a GPS factory head unit? I'd like to get upgrade to the factory GPS head unit as long as I don't have to do anything crazy to the harness back there or run antennas. I know a lot of vehicles come pre-wired for all the upgrades and it's usually just involves getting the upgrade parts and hooking them up and maybe some dealer programming.
 






I highly doubt it comes prewired. I don't even think the harnesses are the same..

Your best bet is aftermarket. Lower price, better quality. Not hard to wire up either.
 






I'm honestly not a fan of aftermarket head units. Don't like the way they fit or look. Never seen one that looks like it belongs if that makes any sense.
If you have any suggestions and pics I'd be interested to check it out.
 






With a proper din kit, they can look stock. I don't like how single dins look in a double din slot.
Mine looks ok, I just need to push it in a bit more, but mine's an older dash.
