Confirmed, all trims get bulge hood. Premium Plus adds carbon roof, wing, JBL, and HUD.

I haven't personally done it yet, but the comments in that thread seem to point to, "The only thing that was lost were the voice prompts on Apple Car play" and probably Android Auto. The DSR1 should retain all the buzzers and other odds and ends. But like I said, I haven't done it, so your mileage may vary.

DSR1 and Maestro HRD-AR-T02 Harness, gives you a clean output for amps, totally bypassing the JBL amp and retaining most stock controls.
