Thanks for all the input. Everyone's sentiment seems to match my own. I love the SE edition and would not muck around with ruining it. I don't know if I want to make it look cheesy by moving the heating unit down to the bottom and installing a 2 din Pioneer head unit and disable the MOST Bose system. However, I would love to have Apple Carplay, Navigation, hands free, etc. as this will be a daily driver. I guess I could restore it back to OEM if I needed to so that is great advice.
