Exclamation Please HELP! Radio/Navi Look-a-like - which one?

I am purchasing TCH with UP package - (Blue tooth, Audio, wheels, etc., no navigation and no moon roof). My goal was to get custom leather, navigation and backup camera.

Dealer gladly installed everything custom for me and said that they cannot install factory navigation unit that comes with fully loaded Camry's (made by Eclipse) and they have to use Radio/Navi look-a-like (fits perfectly into dashboard) - an aftermarket unit.

The unit they installed comes from http://oeradio.com/ - model TY-6100. It is not bad over all but:
  • The unit they installed doesn't work with bluetooth/phone buttons on the steering wheel. It means that in order to make a call or even pick-up I have to use the touch screen on the dashboard. Which is as you can imagine could be dangerous while driving (huge deal);
  • It doesn't have the CD changer - just single disk (not a big deal);
My questions are:
  1. What aftermarket look-a-like unit do you use for your Camry. Do you know of any?
  2. Do you have any other recommendations for me? I am trying to replace audio/radio unit that came with my Camry and package UP (no navi) with navigation/audio system;
Thank you for your help!

Gene.
