Hey guys, I am in need of some advice/ideas/help with project I would like to do. Instead of buying a double din NAV unit that could cost anywhere from 500-1000+ I am wondering if it's possible to integrate a Garmin gps device into the cars dash. Maybe someplace in the coin holder or someplace where the stereo is? (I have a single din right now) I can route the power to cig jack from the center console or from the cig jack in the dash, doesn't really matter.

What I want to know if it'll fit? The dimensions of the unit measure 4.8"W x 2.9"H x .8"D (12.2 x 7.4 x 2.0 cm). I am sure we can fit that someplace. I have sandbags and suction cups as they leave marks etc.

Any ideas?

 

Gotta better idea from a friend. Since I don't use the sunglass holder I'll just mount it in there and run the power cord to the cig lighter socket.
