well I wasnt really worried about finding a HU with gps..I have google maps on my phone and a bracket that i set my phone into for trips that hangs onto my windshield..works perfect for me...but the bluetooth is amazing! i had the mic connected to the light unit right above me.. the head unit is very easy to navigate as well..im still of course sorting everything out and working on things so i copied a review i found on it.. I was looking for something that wasnt motorized, and had a aux outlet and usb in the front.so i could hook up my phone when Im running Pandora, or charge my Ipod while listening to it at the same time. It has a 6.1" screen..and it was very affordable..some of the HU you see one here are over $1,000 but this was was reasonable priced..i'd highly recommend it! i'll post more on it once i figure out more about it..but like i said before I even got out the manual, I was setting my presets and setting up the bluetooth features on the phone, so it is a very easy unit to function

I don't have this particular radio, but I can tell you it's not too difficult. You will need a SWI-JACK to connect the steering controls and a digital interface to connect the audio. The reason they want so much is probably because they are charging you $120 (MSRP) for the digital interface, which you can buy for $40-70 and $70 (MSRP) for the SWI-JACK which you can buy for $20-40.
Check out this eBay auction, it shows how the install goes for the most part.
