Once you remove the oem unit the bluetooth will not gonna work, cause its built-in w/ the factory HU..

I've had mine for a while now and it works well. The mirror is taller than the stock piece. You actually gain some visibility, which makes a nice difference if you've got the tall (MR/SSS) wing.

More info on the DNX 9980.

http://ceoutlook.com/tag/kenwood-dnx9980hd/

The new Kenwood decks were just announced last week at CES. The DNX-9980, DNX-6980, and KVT-696. If you can live without a 7" screen, I recommend the 6980, if you need 7" and all the bells and whistles, the 9980 will kill anything on the market. The current 9960 already does.

And +1 on not recommending pioneer. They aren't up to date on their gps, their bluetooth sucks, and so does their customer support.

Just an FYI. I have 5 OEM Nav units from Evo X's that I'm going to be selling. It's only the unit and does not have the dash kit. Looking to get $700 for each.

I have the JVC KW-NT3HDT. Great HU for the price, HD radio tagging, Bluetooth built in, live traffic rerouting, etc. And it has a volume knob which I love. Screen is a little smaller due to the physical controls, but it works for my purposes.

Most won't like the lack of rear USB input. I'm fine with it.

And FWIW I'm not a fan of the Pioneer units. I know everyone has them but I'm just not sold on the Navi, UI or Music UI.

Are the OEM bluetooth controls still functional after a aftermarket navi install, can a interface be purchased to be able to use utilize them? I know the volume mute etc. can be programmed but I love being able to press and talk who i want to call. i am thinking about the Sony XNV-770BT

sn: sorry for brining back a old thread

I believe with the Axxes module they still are, but I'm not 100% sure. I removed my controls cause they were bothering me and used my push to talk button instead.
