The reason I as is because I have a stock Ford navigation in my Ford explorer and with a couple of button presses the developers menu can be opened enabling use while driving. Thought it might be the same with the z.
There is a way to do this by interrupting one of the wires on the main nav unit with a switch. I have done this to my nav system in my 05 FX. I will look at the unit tomorrow and tell you which wire you need to install a switch between and all you have to do is hit the switch (interupt the signal), which makes the unit think that you’re not moving and you will be able to access all the functions, once your done putting your info in just throw the switch back and the nav will catch up to your new position. Hopefully the control unit hasn't changed that much, but it's that easy. What you need to do is locate the nav unit. I mounted the switch on the lower portion on the passenger seat, I will take some pictures for you.
