BRZ Nav in FR-S

Has anyone got the BRZ nav to work in the FR-S with full functionality? I see a few BRZ navs go on sale without the nav antenna. Is there an antenna available that is compatible other than oem?

The BRZ nav offers stock fitment without a nasty spacer on the sides. Can you point me to an aftermarket NAV unit in the US that offers me that for what i'm going to spend?

No, you either get a great aftermarket radio with shitty spacers, or you get nice fitment with a shitty radio.

Unless you want to get them glassed and the piece repainted. then you can have both.
