Default new owner. need help!

Im picking up a 03 350z track model in 2 days with 19k miles on it. I have a few questions. Ive searched for a few and there was just too many threads and couldnt find the answers I needed.

Is it possible to update the factory nav?

What bulbs do the 03 headlights take? and if I decided to switch to the 06+ headlights/taillights would I need to modify anything or would it still be plug and play?

And if anyone wants to give me some ideas on some mods please feel free. Im new to the 350z scene.. So any help would be appreciated.

easier just to get a in dash and replcae your radio; you have a whole new nav, a ballin mod, and improving your sound system

tail lights should be plug and play. i think the headlights would have no issues but not sure about the wiring harnesses

And if anyone wants to give me some ideas on some mods please feel free. Im new to the 350z scene.. So any help would be appreciated.
tint first and foremost.

intake / bassani exhaust / maybe some high flow cats if thats your style

having been around a while (this isnt my primary account) i dont really think its hard to believe. whats hard to believe is that there are so many people who buy cars like the 350Z and dont drive it but like once a week to the grocery store. never understood that concept

you can get the Pioneer AVIC D series used for mega cheap, and the new F series is amazing if you are willing to front the money. id never go with anything other than pioneer for DoubleDins.

obviously no factory nav but heres my AVIC D1 installed. go for the D3, the D1 is a great system but the D3 is worth the few bucks more:
