Has anyone attempted to install a G8 Blaupunkt Stereo Recievier Head Unit into a 11-13? Besides the existing trim pieces that are not compatible, anyone know if the harnesses etc would be compatible?

When G8 guys do the IQ units in the G8's they have a harness adapter that changes the style of the radio plug to the IQ one. Not sure they make it to go the other way since that would be considered putting an older generation of receiver in the car. May actually get better audio but the display is like a dot matrix type i think, that would look pretty dated IMO.

Why on earth would you want to do that? the IQ is way better than the G8 radio.
