Installing 2013 intellilink nav unit and trim on a 2010 Insignia
#1
Hey guys!

I am interested in fitting an intellilink nav unit from the 2013 facelift Insignia on my 2010 Insignia.

Essentially, I want to go from the one on the left to the one on the right:


(image take from: http://www.auto-news.de/webcore/data/con...rticle_EXT)

I am not really interested in getting the intellilink to work because I plan on gutting its innards and replace it with a mini or flex atx motherboard and basically install a small linux machine that I will use to program my own radio unit with all the goodies that I will ever need, and if I can't reverse engineer the touchscreen to work, I'll hack another in its place. 


The reason I want to do this is because I want to connect this linux machine to the OBD port of the car and have the possibility to display sensor readings and fault codes straight to the unit's screen. (I'm also tired of fault codes popping up in the middle of a long drive only to have it disappear by the time I get to a dealership where they inevitably tell me they couldn't find any fault code.)

I could do this with the stock unit but the new one looks cooler and I'd like to keep the stock one as a backup.

To summarize, what I need to know is:

  1. Will it physically fit (do the mounting holes / clips line up; is it the same external shape etc.)?
  2. Will the air con controls, hazard lights, traction control, parking sensor and lock / unlock buttons work or what is needed to get them to work?
Thanks!
