So it's not really a big deal to loose these, the computer will take care of itself, so the only thing you have to physically do is the radio and windows.

Mine loses no settings. Index the windows and done.

Nope, you don't lose any of that if you have factory radio. Aftermarket radio may or may not lose presets depending on the model.
