i wana buy a 2008 sedan OEM head unit ( screen and menu buttons with gps control buttons- top part) to replace my non nav packcage (2007 G35 sedan V36). and mount the transciever in the glove compartment or sumthin and draw power from head unit connection. possible?. there has to be a way. has any one an opinion ?

 

You will need an entirely new wire harness to complete it. You're better off with an aftermarket headunit with nav.

 

What year is your current vehicle?

If it's a 07+ sedan or 08+ coupe, you're in the wrong forum - try here instead - https://g35driver.com/forums/v36-aud...ectronics-375/

Also, retrofitting OEM nav is a major PITA (exponentially so if you're a first-gen trying to put second-gen nav in), more expensive than any aftermarket unit, and nowhere near as good.

 

mine is a 2007 v36 sedan 2nd Gen non-nav.. im desperate to have the dash to look like factory, but have GPS. Since the 2008 looks exactly the same except with NAV, cant i install it without laying the wires in the harness?

 

Well, the wiring harnesses for nav vs. non-nav in first-gen g35s was different, but there's a chance the wiring is already there in later years.

Try taking this question to the V36 audio/video section I linked in my first reply, they'll probably be better able to answer you.

 

Check out this video, I have an 09 journey in canada no nav or backup cam... this is one heck of a car solution....
