Is GPS possible?

I don't have a navigation unit, I searched the forums and have not found any helpful information. Do I have any options as far as installing a stock GPS system or an aftermarket one? Any info is greatly appreciated!

Thanks,
Pete

the cost of getting a brand new stock NAV unit will probably cost you as much as a Toyota Echo

they'll charge crazy labor.

I think you should get aftermarket NAV. It might not look as integrated, but other than that everything else is better. (better mapping detail, cheaper updates, monitor that you can use for TV/DVD/etc, etc. etc.)

Yeah, most stereo shops...even Good Guys, Circuit City, etc....also try doing some research online...

www.pioneerelectronics.com
www.alpine1.com
www.kenwoodusa.com
www.blaupunkt.com

And I'm sure you're going to ask "which is best". Well there is no CUT AND DRY answer to that. Everyone has their preferences. The top three there all have great Nav systems. Blaupunkts is a little more "German" in terms of user friendliness but it may fit your needs...
