Question Aftermarket Head Unit and Nav

Who here has had an aftermarket headunit and Nav system installed in their Cayenne? Did you lose any features? Did you have trouble finding a place to install it?

I found a very good deal on a Pioneer D2 and I would like to pick it up but I would like to have an idea of what I would lose dropping the factory head unit.

I have a related question. If your car does not have PCM, is it plug-and-play to rip out the head unit + the storage tray, and put in the PCM?

installed a new head unit with new touch screen for xm, xm traffic, nav, sirius, ipod, external video and rear view camera and blue tooth phone. lost display of pcm on main screen and even remaining miles to empty on little display. headphones in rear on wireless and separate programs in front and back. video in back on front headrests and on dashboard. had great trepidations. looks great. works very well. not perfect but pretty close. xm traffic not that accurate. blue tooth phone works well. love the sat radio but mainly listen to new sirius country. go figure with all the options

Curious as well.. I would guess that you would at least need to add the sat antenna. Any info on this?
