\can you keep sirius xm and backup camera oem with the beat sonic kit? Did you do the installation yourself?

you can still have sirus xm but that depends on what double din headunit you purchase. the beatsonic will basically bypass all the audio to the aftermarket unit while retaining all other factory functions like rear camera/navi etc. i had a shop do my install but only because of my busy schedule (having 2 young kids) but it us very straightforward and they even have youtube video of install. if you do go that route make sure you also purchase the steering wheel remote option so you can control vol/skip/mode on steering wheel.
