I am a bit of a gadget geek and really like the new center stack (controls and button layout) and MFT of the '13s. I have a '12 SCREW that I love and definitely do not see the need to trade a '12 for a '13 just for the stack. So, I was wondering if anyone has swapped out their center stack and navigation on the '11/'12 for the center of a '13? If so, what did it cost you and where there any extra wiring or fabrication that needed to be done. I am assuming it would be a simple swap.

Is the button layout really worth the swap and dealing with MFT? Seems like sync is better.

I'm glad I didnt wait to get the 13 model and got a 12. I dont need the "latest" gadgets. Besides, there are more problems with MFT then is worth dealing with. I dont need nor want to access a touch screen to activate my heated seats when I can press a simple button. Less is more.
