Navi Color off after Nav2Go installation

During lunch I just got the Nav2Go unit installed and working and only have to finish the camera install after work.

However I noticed that the color is off on my Navi now after the install. I only noticed this right at the end and didn't get a chance to look at the unit (I believe there is some color correction or something on the unit itself)

Has anyone else seen this and had to adjust for it post the install?

Thanks

Just finished my install with camera Sunday. I can't tell any difference. Their is a color adjustment on the Nav2Go unit. I would think that it would be a straight pass through unless you were viewing a video source other than the nav. I never touched the adjustments though.. Let us know if they actually adjust the picture of the nav display, I.E. - pass through only , not your camera or DVD video source. Mines all tucked away now thus would be a minor pain just to try etc..

What camera did you go with?

Thanks

Well I figured it out. The connection to the back of the Nav unit on the PnP harness wasn't so good. I think I have read about this before, but that particular plug doesn't SNAP into the back of the unit like the OEM one. Therefore you have to make sure it is plugged in securely. I am a little worried that it will wiggle loose again, esp being in the trunk so I think I will have to figure out a way to secure it.

BTW I went with Wendy's older camera, the one pretty much everyone on here uses.
