New owner 2005 MINI S sound questions

Reposting from Gen 1 forum....

Good to find this forum. We bought a 2005 Mini S convertible a month ago. Three days later it was rear ended and the other driver left the scene. We just got it back a few days ago and trying to learn to use all the features and fix a couple things.

The Harmon Kardon radio/CD has a CD stuck in it. Nearest dealer is 130 miles away. Any thought other than taking it to someone? And if it needs to be replaced, it appears that the overall system is pretty HK centric. Thoughts about adding a different off the shelf audio player VS spending a lot for a new HK unit?

We have the Bluetooth telephone connection installed and it works fine. And the Navigation package. Is it possible to add an Aux and or thumb drive input to the HK system? Or even Bluetooth?

We'd like to add a backup camera. The visibility isn't that great for backing up. Any experience with that? The dealer estimate is extremely expensive. I guess one basic question is whether the Navigation screen can work as the backup camera display or if it takes a separate screen?
