I'm looking to replace my N2 with a Z1, do you know if all the harnesses and data cables are interchangable? I would hate to pull all of them out only to replace them with the same ones. I'm currently running NavTraffic & Ipod adapter (Pioneer). Thanks in advance for your help.

I don't think the harnesses are the same.

The harnesses are different but shouldn't be that different to swap, just match the colors. The Z1 is also all in one unit so there is no hideaway box. You will have to move the VSS wire, Reverse wire, and P-bus connections from your hideaway box on the N2 back to the dash to connect to the back of the Z1. The cables for XM and ipod are the same

Don't forget about the gps antenna that'll have to move too.

Do you know if they make an extension cable for the GPS & XM wires? I had to route them into the trunk and just barely had enough to run them under the rear seat.

Oh Yea, that was my first post, and I really appreciate ALL of your help. Here's a pic of where it's going.

There is an extension for XM, not sure about GPS. I just stuck mine right in the center of the dash and it works great
