| Jan 14, 2017 at 13:35 | comment | added | J Kelly | I don't want a smartphone app. I don't want help finding my car in a parking lot. I hate taking directions from a gps. I don't make phone calls while driving. I won't pay for satellite radio. I find the whole computer distracting, but I would probably use it to play normal radio (if it can) and for whatever charging management functions it has. Mostly I mind that it's sending my data out, either broadcasting to sensors "hey here I am" or giving Kia a map of where I go regularly. I don't want it collecting my voice recognition data. Sorry, tech privacy curmudgeon. | |

| Jan 14, 2017 at 5:30 | comment | added | Ben | Short of removing the antenna (means losing gps/radio/sirius) module I don't think you'll be able to do what you want. If you're feeling adventurous pull the antenna module and take a look at the board. | |
