Has anyone swapped speedometers yet?

I have a CM with the LARGE speedometer and am curious if the speedometer which is used for the connect/nav system could be retrofitted without having mini connect.

Thanks

Without MINI Connected you'll end up with a big blank spot on your dash because the video display won't work...

The other issue is that without Connected you completely loose the radio. The radio is controlled using the connected joystick and the display. The display is not a touchscreen...

True.. I just noticed that too. I was hoping the radio would fit (with mods) in the lower section of the connect speedo but it looks like it will be too wide..

Oh well...

Thanks
