Besides this I think the Navigation package is the best looking for the car. Everything looks like it has a purpose and the way it should from factory. I personally prefer everything looking like it came like that from Nissan.
Of course though, that is just my opinion. You can get way better sound if you upgrade your speakers, sub and amp... maybe you can get focals and then you are all set.
My conversion to a 2011 Navi system was 550 CAD plus my time so I don't think it was a bad deal considering brand new head units are way more expensive than that.
What screen capabilities are you talking about? I haven’t heard of any glitches. All the guys I’ve seen that have deleted their factory NAV and went aftermarket haven’t had any issues. Unless they wired it in wrong.

I can understand wanting an OEM look. It does look nice. For me the factory NAV, even the newer ones, wasn't cutting it for me anymore functionality. Also I am unwilling to pay for map updates anymore. I really want Apple Carplay and better functionality between the HU and my phone in general. For now I'm just upgrading my HU. I scored a new Alpine iLX-007 for $370 that I will be installing where the factory NAV screen goes later this summer.
