The ICS is the actual control panel on the outside and communicates with the radio over the vehicle's data bus. The center stack panel includes the climate controls and any other controls GM wants to integrate into the center stack.
In other words, it's going to be nearly impossible to upgrade. |
If they build enough cars that way someone is sure to build a "silver box" with better sound and/or more features.
