New head unit with nav. Installed

I installed a new sound stream double din head unit with nav system and Bluetooth. Bought it from crutchfield . Crutchfield sets you up with everything you will need. The install was pretty easy. Crutchfield gives you the correct harness and info. Needed. You never have to cut any wires from the stock harness, so it will be easy to go back to the stock radio.

Very cool! Did you have to carve out the back of the waterfall behind the radio?
Did you swap out door speakers?

No carving involved. Speakers will probably be next. The new unit is quite a bit louder than stock

Soundstream? No familiar with the brand.....

I need a unit that will utilize the factory XM unit and antenna. Any suggestions or is that even possible?

Crutchfield will have the necessary wire harness for that. You will have to find a head unit that has XM radio as an option. The unit I bought did not

What double din dash kit is that. It looks factory. The metra and scoshe ones are a matte finish and doesn't look like this one.

That is correct. When I chose which receiver I wanted the crutchfield website will list optional items that are compatible with your car and the receiver you chose
