So, someone broke in my car at the airport while I was out of town and took apart my interior to steal my center Bose stack with the A/C vents, controls, etc... They amazingly didn't break anything and all of my screws were in the center cup holder along with a plastic pry tool. I guess they didn't like my taste in music because they ejected my CDs and left them on the floor. I guess in a way, I'm thankful they didn't just smash/cut the thing out.

ANYHOW, at the local wrecking yard, I found a 2004 G35 with the factory Nav. They are selling the entire center piece I need, vents, radio and all, with the screen for $200+tax, 90 day warranty. I know the Nav won't work since I don't have the wiring, nor do I want to retrofit that mass of required wiring, but will I be able to plug the rest of it up and have CD/Radio/SiriusXM and AC controls back? The car has been sitting because it is set at 82 degrees and there is no changing it! Not crazy about giving up that storage cubby, but the price is right!

Car is 6MT if that makes any difference. Thanks for your help!

I'm not interested in aftermarket.

I don't think you understood what I am asking. I am asking: will everything other than the Navigation work in a 2003 G35 Coupe with Bose Stereo if I install the entire center stereo stack from a Navigation equipped car?

I am not looking to retrofit OEM Nav, I just need my Climate Control to work again along with my factory Bose stereo. I need the A/C vents, metal brackets, etc, so $200 for everything is a good deal...if it works.

 

Question will have to remain unanswered. I found a non-nav Bose setup with the brackets and A/C vents locally and I am back in business.

 

Sorry I missed it, but yeah, it'll wire up and work fine - for re-using the navigation space, just hook up power for the lift mechanism and swap the screen out, like I did:

I've currently got a combination of black felt and ABS plastic to make a nice mount location for my phone (along with USB power, of course).

 

That is great info! One could do a phone or even just a standalone Garmin/Magellan/TomTom GPS in that space and have it pop up with a little work. I may have to plan this out in the future. Thanks again!
