I have a 2007 Limited with the JBL Synthesis system in it. I'm very happy with the sound quality as my hearing isn't what it use to be when I was young, lol!!! I have an opportunity to review a new double din head unit with a 10.1 "floating screen" and by reviewing it the stereo is mine to keep. This is the unit

I am told that if I purchase this Crux Kit it will allow this stereo to work with the Synthesis system.

Can someone who knows about car audio tell me if this is correct? I know sites like Crutchfield will tell you exactly what you need but only for head units that they sell, and this isn't one of them.
I'm not interested in replacing any major components that are being used now. The only reason why I'm even considering this is because I would be able to see GPS Navigation on a screen much larger than my Pixel 8 Pro. I have my music on my phone and currently connect it by using the 3.5 mm port the factory installed in the center console bin so all the extra stuff like many calls, voice activation, sending text messages are all features that I will probably never use. I'm 6 decades young and my music needs are much less these days than back in the 80's, lol!!!!! I just want to be sure this will workout before I proceed. If I can get by with less than what this Crux kit contains I would be interested in saving as much as possible. Thank you to anyone who might be able and willing to answer my question. NCH
