Couldn't positively tell you it is but I can not imagine that the install for the Z1 is much if any different than the D1. As far as install difficulty goes, it is very simple compared to many I have don't in the past. Just get yourself the double din kit, wire harness and OnStar/Chimes modules and you will be good to go. Running the antenna will probably take you close to the same amount of time as the rest of the install.

I know that you don't want to buy another XM tuner but with the Z1 you can also get XM Traffic in New York. I went with the GEX-P10XMT for my D1 and it works great. I have not used it too much yet but with XM Traffic if there is an accident, road construction or some other delay in your route, it will automatically reroute you around it to save time. Another great feature that isn't available in Orlando yet but will be is Traffic Flow. It will show you the average speed vehicles are going through sections of the highway/road that is in the system. I know that I have seen these new on Ebay for about $125.
