didnt look hard enough the answer is no you can not just buy an aftermarket radio or replace it with the same one

 

My fault. Thanks!

So I take it this wouldn't work either --

no because the bose systemp has an amp and is configured specifically with the bose amp. The non bose, oem head unit doesn't have an amp and is setup for 6 speakers.

It would just be easier to go with an aftermarket head unit & speakers or a 4 channel amp later on

 

I would think you could replace with the same make/style 'factory' unit.

But, as I understand the question you posed, which was: can I replace my factory head unit with the Bose head unit?

And the post response was "NO".

I agree. You cannot replace the factory non-Bose head unit with a factory Bose head unit unless you change out everything. That's true w/Nissan products and GM products (namely Corvette).

Bose products are proprietary systems.

 

Got it, thanks for the help guys.

 

one interesting logo I heard earlier today on talk radio about Bose: no low no highs!!!
