08 with factory navigation and bose

[dallasneon]

Doing some searching around but can't find anything definitive. My question is, can I install an aftermarket stereo and still keep the factory bose system? The factory radio is getting flaky in its operations. I'm sure there is a module out there but I can't find it. Any help would be appreciated.

There is an interface you can purchase but you would get better sound quality by not using the Bose and purchasing a good amp.

Thanks, I was under the impression that the module would work with the Bose but not Bose with factory nav. The factory navigation being an issue. The wife doesn't really care about the sound, she's happy with the Bose audio, she just wants the newer features that the factory radio doesn't have.

Slap an Ipad Mini with LTE on the face and use a bluetooth adapter / power supply like the Kinivo and you have the best system anywhere.

This is what you need to have complete functionality and control over the Bose amp, clock and MPG.

I have this in my wife's 9. she has the touring model w/ Bose. I installed a Pioneer AVH-4700 deck w/ satellite radio. Kept all the functionality of the stock system, plus you have control over the actually Bose amp itself.
