I don't think there's nothing too special about the command system in the G (as there wasn't before either) so i would suspect you just need to do some careful homework on it if you want to get it to work.
Erik,

the steering wheel controls might be a bit different on the 2004 model, due to the fiber optic ring connection in that system. I can can change playing tracks on my ipod as it replaced the cd-changer, which only had a optical interface and power connection.

Question:

Can you display and track different mapfiles other than the OEM Kenwood ones?
