Not a chance. For one thing, the newer head unit is keyed to the vehicle and won't work in another car (anti-theft function). For another, the head unit has no amp and doesn't even have standard electrical controls for volume, tone, balance and fade. It communicates with the external controller and amp via a network setup. For example, when you turn up the volume, there is no increase in output from the HU, it just sends a command to the external audio controller to increase the output.

You would need to get the HU, audio controller, amp, and the wiring (they have unique connectors) and then figure out how to make it work in a different car... to my knowledge, nobody has figured out that last part.
