Of course you can replace your stereo system. However, as you correctly
noted you are going to sacrifice some other functionality. I don't
recommend doing it.

My son has a new '04 EX and previously had a Blaupunkt system + amplifier
& subs in a Toyota RAV4. Tho somewhat of a music buff he chose not to
tamper with the sound system in his new Honda because he thought it
sounded pretty good stock. --- and he made this decision before purchasing
the EX.

To my knowledge right now there's really not much of anything out there in
the aftermarket products along the lines of a FULLY INTEGRATED XM receiver
(meaning built-in to the main system).

Don't dispair, even the factory stock XM system in the fully equipped
$75,000 Lexus LS430 doesn't display as much info as the $119 aftermarket
Roadie.
