Anything I should know before installing a NAV-TV unit??? Installing it myself Friday

Hey guys...if any of you are familiar with the NAV-TV unit and can give me tips or pointers on the install, I would greatly apreciate it. Even tips on how the FM modulator works?

I have the instructions, but I was wondering if there is any tips, tricks, secrets or even pit falls of this type of installation.

Am I going to need any special components other than the basics (wire taps, electrical tape, etc..)

Any idea on where to stash the unit?

Thanks guys!

Yea but how does the FM mod work??? I am just curious...does it produce your sound through the radio head unit on a special FM station?? And do you have the NAV-TV unit? If so where did you stash the unit? And is the install basic?

Sorry for all the questions...I am getting excited...

Just a switch box so that I can use the stock navi and a video input like a PS2 so I can watch movies etc...
