Most units come with their own. My Kenwood came with its own mic. The factory unit is amplified and has a nonstandard harness on it. You could potentially rewire it to bypass the mic amplifier but it's easier to just run the cables for the aftermarket one. Mine's mounted to the headliner right behind the factory location and since it's black on black, no one really notices. The installers that did my stereo said they tried putting the aftermarket one in the location of the factory mic but sound was muffled
