Question Navi w/real time traffic

The 2007s are offering the Navi w/real time traffic. Does anyone know if it is possible to upgrade the 2006s with this feature?

far as i know, no - real time traffic is through the xm reception and wouldnt think that it was just a upgrade version of xm rather than a hardware fix. Also, though i dont know your city, unless it's a large metro area, the difference is small

it is doable but it would cost about4k, getting a new navi rom 2k, new screen 1k, new antennas, new wiring, etc. It would be cheaper to buy the 07's

Welcome aboard. Please perform a search before posting. There are a few threads on this already, but here is a quote from one of them:

You can perform a search for exact details, but here is a good place to start:
