OEM for $1500?? You sure it's OEM..? Sounds fishy.. The parts alone are well over that cost..

If I didn't have one in mine, I would consider a portable unit that I could use in my other cars or when traveling and was using a rental. Check out the Garmin 2620 or any others in the 2600 series. There was one guy in CD that made a mount that set the unit on the tray above the radio. It won't be fully integrated into your car but will give you more flexibility and would work fine. Provides voice prompts also. I think one of the units in the 2600 series is fully loaded for all 50 states.

you should get a pocket PC with blue tooth
and a GPS device (bluetooth)

for that, you 'll have a navigation system much better than Garmin.

Why ?

The software can be update with out charge. (you can get it for free from me

for more info, ask me
