I forgot I replied to this.  Thought I would add more:

so... I completely understand your frustration with the bundled GPS
system. It can be quite annoying when manufacturers package desirable
features with others that you don’t need.

Retrofitting a blind spot detection system without the GPS is indeed
possible, though it might require some effort and technical know-how.
There are aftermarket blind spot detection systems available that can
be installed independently of the factory GPS. These systems typically
use radar sensors mounted on the rear bumper to detect vehicles in
your blind spots and provide visual or audible alerts.

One option you might consider is the radar-based blind spot monitoring
systems, which are known for their reliability and compatibility with
various vehicle models1. These systems can be installed without
needing to integrate with the vehicle’s GPS or other factory systems.

However, it’s important to note that installation can be a bit
complex, involving wiring and sensor placement. If you’re not
comfortable doing it yourself, I would recommend seeking help from a
professional installer who has experience with aftermarket safety
systems.
