A 530W can be certified for primary nav.

But you can't do it yourself, it needs a new GPS antenna installed, new GPS coax installed, new paperwork for your AFM, and a flight test. I've just been doing the research to update my 430 to a 430W for ADS-B upgrade. No easy ( do it yourself fix) unfortunately. It will slide into the existing rack though.
