Aftermarket Navigation

68rscamaro · 03-12-2010, 01:55 PM

After seeing this... My alternate "factory" navigation solution I knew that I had to the same thing.
The install wasn't to bad but it's a fairly spendy mod. There's no way to turn it on or off once it's installed so I wired in a switch so I could turn it off without turning the ignition off. You can see the switch next to the emergency flasher switch.

What did you do with the row of buttons that controls your factory navigation....in other words how do you no control your factory nav?

Correct......My truck never had factory navigation.
I bought this YOUR NISSAN PARTS.COM and this Amazon.com: Magellan RoadMate 1700 7-Inch Widescreen Portable GPS Navigator: Electronics Then just put them together and installed. Look around for the nav unit they can be had cheaper then what I posted. I actually got mine the day after Thanksgiving for $179.00

Here's some specs on the alpine head unit

I'll get a pic for you as soon as I get home. It's not pretty if you look at it from the top. The 2 pieces don't mate up, I cut the radio bezel a little "tall" so it looked clean from everywhere but looking straight down at the seam.
