I'm talking in general, to find out which OEM options (including overseas markets) are plug-n-play or easily retrofitted into USDM FRS and BRZ - so that people like myself can know their options if they want to rid themselves of navigation and touchscreens.

Thanks @Muskokan but that's not the point of this thread. The goal here is to figure out what OEM head units work with little to no modifications, for people like myself who want to ditch the touchscreen navi in favor of a simpler experience which maintains OE aesthetics.

Hopefully folks from other parts of the world like @nzer and @Fizz and @Killerbee will help us compile the details of head units offered in other parts of the world so that we can have a thorough comparison and determine what options are compatible, cost effective, et al.

And maybe someone familiar with the rest of the Subaru lineup ( @HeubergerMotors or a friend?) can help us look at wiring diagrams to determine what the simpler units need compared to the nav rigs.
