[s-cars] Blaupunkt MDP-01 Compatibility - NOT COMPATIBLE :-(

[chris chambers]

I just got off the phone with a reseller of this product, he has
informed me that there is software that must reside within the head
unit in order to control it. He said it won't work even if we get the
wiring matched up.

If this is the case how hard/$$$expenisve would it be to switch over to
a head unit it was designed to work with? Anybody know much about them?
Here is some information on compatible receivers:

So I won't be ordering one at this time....anybody else more willing to
take a gamble? Looks like a nice system...BUT will require replacing
the factory head unit which will lead to new speakers, etc.
