Ok i have two choices, one is where the factory NAV is supposed to be or the other is where the Stock HU is. Now i want it to be almost eye level with me when driving so i dont have to look down or take my eyes off the road, with it being at eye level i can just look with my eyes to the right instead of looking down and to the right ya know. But i also dont want the Avic-n1 to look out of place if its where the old NAV box used to be when the screen is open, just some thoughts and suggestions would be helpful.

 

looking for suggestions too...i want it to be in the same place where the stock nav screen would go...i'm getting mine tomorrow and would like some help with the install this weekend if possible.

well
i have the n1 too
i install it at the stock stereo location..like limeg35 did
brought the double din kit

i say it look cleaner at that place
the navi location is not so good
u may have ur screen at eye level but the angle may not be that good

the bad about the stock stereo location is
where u need to turn off/on or adjust the A/C control
is a bit annoying ...even with quick flip function
(u only have 15 sec then it gose back up)
cos u need to close screen everytime u adjust it
so when it is a rainny day..it is worst
u need to turn on that thing for ur back window
and the turn A/C on for clearing up the front window a bit
then u may turn the temp up if it gets abit cold for ur lady
beside u...
all those..

anyway this is just my thought...just some factor for u to consider

 

I am halfway through my install, but now we need to paint the center console...Looking for the paint code or color or type of paint used whatever I need to give to my installer...Anyone know this??

It ain't just a Nissan!
