You will only get detailed map info (POI's and close up views) with the navigation DVD in the drive. Also, you will want to hoop up the VSS wire if possible. This will give you much better accuracy for the GPS.

You dont technically need it, but it will make your GPS much more accurate. Its the pink wire coming off the harness labled speed sense. Its hooked to the cars computer and tells the AVIC how fast the car is actually moving. Without the wire hooked up, it can only sense speed by checking the GPS satellites which can cause a delay.

That all depends on the car. Every one is different.
