The bolts look good. That's what I'll replace my truck with when the time comes. I don't mind replacing the head unit because I used to do it in every vehicle I had until the latest one. I just have to see how it's tied together and hope they didn't do something stupid like tying it to a critical system.
The 2023 Bolt has Android Auto and Apple CarPlay. Once they switch over to the Optium platform (next year I think), they will be using the Optium infotainment system. That has had some notable issues like rebooting in the middle of driving to apply an update which means you don't get to see things like how fast you are going for a minute or two. They had to recall the Blazer EV because failed updates caused the car to become a brick. Like the car became inoperable. That really makes me wonder if they are scraping the bottom of the barrel for software developers since version rollback is pretty fucking standard for most software these days.
You do get 8 years free of their infotainment package. Not sure what all that includes though nor how much the subscription is after the 8 years is up.
I still have use for my truck for the next few years (hauling stuff a couple of times a week) so I'm hoping that it's a well documented replacement by the time I'm ready to get one.
