To get for my 2000, and for installation. I don't think it is worth as big price but they do make a car look really nice. Maybe I should just save for TV's.

 

Unit is about 2800, install dont know and cant tell without seeing the back of it to know if the joker plugs right up or need more wiring for the GPS antenna.

Why not just but an aftermarket one for less than that and have the use of it with a DVD player?

Dixit

 

From what I remember reading in earlier threads it is next to impossible to put the factory nav in a car that doesn't have it because of the interaction with the bose stereo and the climate control system.

Best thing is to go with an aftermarket flip out monitor and add the navigation module. Unless you want to have dvd or tv then you could get a hand held for a lot less money.

 

Unless you really have a need for it, I would say go with other mods.

Pretty expensive just for looks.

 

Whoa, you didn't tell him to search!

 

Probably wouldn't have anyway!!

But, yeah, you got me on that moment of weakness....

 

Oh calm down. I think I will look for a flip out dvd player that has it all. What will those run me and where can I get the best prices?

 

YOU calm down!! I wasn't even speaking to you.

AND...learn how to use the internet...

etc.


j/k (kind of)

 

No ****. You were talking to me indirectly saying I wouldn't use the search anyways. Thanks though.

 

BigDogJonx is right. I asked him these questions before and he gave me the run down. Also, I talked to my friend that worked at the stereo shop and he gave me the same basic run down. even though u want to get a screen, u still need to get the brain to run the dvd, ur deck, etc. that can cost u close to $500-$1k alone. so u're looking at close to $1.5k (give or take) and i believe that's without the nav.

 

So I guess that means I will just stick to the tv's and dvd player idea.

 

Good call, I'm pretty fast on the search, but jjs beats me down

 

Dude,
I asked that very same question about a couple of weeks back. The general answer is to go with an after-market or handheld. I wanted it mainly for the looks but it turned out it will be a very good and very pricey option. I changed my mind.

 

General Question about Nav systems --
do you have to pay any recurring monthly subscription fees or something like that ?
For using the satellites ?

Wondering ....

 

Satellite navigation systems using GPS do not have any fees. Only some of the new radios (like Sirus or XM) require a monthly fee.

 

yeah guys, how much would it cost to do this?
