Has anyone done the beat sonic adapter for the 470 with nav and ML system and bypassed the amp? Or do you know if I can move the tape deck to glove box and put in a single Din and bypass the amp?

You'd only want to bypass the amplifier if you're replacing all the speakers. The ML speakers are 8 ohms, and most aftermarket speakers and amplifiers would be 4 ohms.
There are now two beatsonic versions. One for trucks with nav and one for trucks without. The beatsonic module only lets you replace the tape deck below the screen with a single din head unit but it still uses the factory amp and speakers.
I just did this to mine. It's great but I couldn't get the (sold separately) steering wheel controller adapter to work. I got impatient and just left it out. Still I really like it. I turned off my nav screen because I don't need to see the map 24/7.
