Im thinking of taking out my Bose stereo and going with a JVC bluetooth unit. Should I or should I keep it stock?

I am looking at going with a pioneer AVIC Z150 to give me Bluetooth and iPhone apps. Just keep stock parts and limit modification. I think very minimal mod to install.

NCRS judging would be the only reason to keep it, otherwise, ditch it! As previously stated, remove the Bose carefully and store it, next owner may want it. Those stereos weren't very good when they were new, so almost anything is is upgrade, especially with today's technology. Once you get the old speakers out of their boxes, visit a local car stereo shop and see what they recommend for insulation within the factory speaker cavities, that insulation as innocuous as it may seem, actually makes a big difference because the technology of that material has also increased by a quantum leap. Keep the factory speaker locations, factory speaker grills are also a nice touch. A small power amp to power the back speakers (6x9's pretty much drop right in) will fit very nicely either under or behind (down low, just above the vertical to horizontal transition) the passengers seat.
