What Nissan did was say “if you want leather interior, you have to buy the package that includes our awful touchscreen nav”.

They sold a lot of nav units that way (and that’s about the only way, IMO).

Had to do this with Mazda.

Five years later and the touchscreen keeps causing ghost touches every time the car stops, I actively have to make sure I'm in some obscure menu where random touches won't start calling people or changing the radio channel.
