Re: HELP WITH NAVI !!!!!

Factory Navi will cost you $6,000 in parts, we dont know of anyone who's done it.

Aftermarket Navi will cost you between $2,000 and $3,000 Total. You will have to get the jdm double-din dash-kit from Japan for $400 (I included this in the above price). Some aftermarket headunits/navi's people on this forum have installed: Kenwood, Pioneer, Eclipse, Alpine, and even Garmin.

Search the forum, look around, there are many many pics of many many different setups.

Re: HELP WITH NAVI !!!!!

thanks RamboRami, so do you suggest i just choose one of those company's for Navi??

the other day i was talking to my dealer he said that an aftermarket one would cost around $1000 but without voice thing, however he did not mention whether it was like the one the factory made

Re: HELP WITH NAVI !!!!!

well, garmin makes several portable units (ALL WITH SOUND), all under $1000 however they are not "integrated" into your sound system.

It seems like you want something that is fully integrated into your dashboard so it looks "like factory made"

For something like that it will cost between $2000 and $3000. Most people seem to like the Eclipse AVN2454:

I have the Pioneer AVIC-N1 http://www.avic-n1.com
It is a great unit but there is definitely room for improvement - hopefully in the next dvd-map update in later 2004 or early 2005.

Here are some pictures of what some g35 members have done (scroll down the page for lots of pictures)

I'm mass producing a housing that will allow you to put a screen in the cubby as shown above. You will be able to keep the stock head unit with this. This will allow you to put a remote mount NAV system with video output in and should cost you a total of less then $1500 installed if you do it yourself. E-mail me at godofcpu@vt.edu for more information and complete pricing details.

The housings are still in production and right now the earliest estimate I can give to when I'll be shipping them will be the end of this month.
