kenwood dnx9990 hd

I was looking to install kenwood dnx9990 into my 2006 sl55, I just bought the car and it does have an aftermarket amp installed in the trunk.
The reason im looking at the head unit replacement is due to no bluetooth. I would also like to stream music. I have a Iphone 3GS .
Will my steering wheel controls still work , Will it tell me what street im on in the IP display like it does now.
Thank You for your time

I don't think you can stream music on the factory?

cheapest way would to plug in to the aux input and call it a day, but integrated I would do aftermarket
