the only code you'll have to re-enter is the radio code

I believe if you make a fairly quick (?) battery replacement you don't have to change the code because there's a capacitor that keeps the code and presets alive for a while.

Correct, I don't know of any aftermarket units that require a code. The code is specific to the radio. I believe the W202 uses a fibre optic connection with the radio.....is your after market unit fibre optic ready?
