Rod you could consider using a Mac Mini for your mapping and buy a single DIN Pioneer DEH-X3950BT radio. And remove your standard 100 series double DIN unit. The Mac mini can mount above the stereo and can be a dash cam for recording exciting manoeuvres.
Alternatively I have a double DIN unit that does mapping, inc OziExplorer, and Memory-Map plus a reversing camera. And talks to my iPhone 6s via Bluetooth in my 30 year old Landcruiser.
