Nav System/Bose Audio (For owners who want to change the system out)

You still would need to install a new head unit which would remove the climate controls and that stands true sense the connectors are different from the base model to the one with nav. So unless you install a head unit above the factory radio this really will not work.

There are 3 types of facings for the 370Z. According to Nissan Parts locally here, although they all look different, the 3 pieces all have the same connector for the AC, so yes you could utilize any face to replace the one you have. This would allow the replacing of the factory Nav system with an aftermarket Double DIN, you just would loose the function of seeing how cold the air is. No need to install above the factory one. It is replacable

I think someone has already tried this twice and failed. I would like to see this done if it can be. From the ones I have had to pull out to integrate aftermarket speakers in, the connector is different.

I'm switching mine out so far no issues. Not sure what to say really as I have heard that the factory stuff is non replaceable etc....and that it wouldn't work and that the factory system has to stay in.....however (always a however), I removed the head unit to test and much to my chagrin everything vital still functions, no loss except for the minimal stuff like seeing the temperature or an incoming call.
I haven't yet bought another bezel piece but according to what I see online, the connector for the AC controls is the same size. I verified this through Nissan that they make 3 versions (all being interchangeable).
I'm not doubting what you say but hard facts are telling me that this isn't the case, things work and there is no loss of critical components.. I'm leaning towards it will work.
