We do the aftermarket work for the local Supra/Moomba dealer and do alot of the warranty diagnosis on the factory audio systems for them. The MB Quart black box that ties into the Medallion dash electronics has had issues. Mostly its been the volume launching to full without any prompting. It seems to be tied to the three remotes and can be temporarily fixed by eliminating one of the three. To my knowledge they are working on it but do not have a rock solid resolution yet.
To repair the transom glass/gelcoat for a new remote is no big deal, at least its fairly inexpensive with our local dealer. Relating to Supras, we have made adapters for the dash remotes that looked factory. The glove box remote gets replaced with a conventional source unit.
The part of the source upgrade that I feel good about is that once you make the change, subsequent service issues are going to be easier several years down the road. I don't have confidence that the original factory equipment is going to be serviceable for that long.

Provided that all the remotes are capatable, honestly I couldn't say whether the problems would carry over or not.
