Not trying to pile on, but your response makes me think that you are not aware of Android Auto or Apple Carplay. With either if these, you would still be able to use your system's touch screen and voice commands to control the Nav.

I was staunchly loyal to my built in GPS, but I had to drop it both for this reason and for the superiority in real time events like traffic re-routing and presence of speed traps.

I wouldn't spend the $100 if I we you and would start to try to go down the path of Android Auto or Carplay depending on your phone.
