I have done some searching and it seems im not the only one annoyed with the crappy 2008 navi system setup.
I was wondering if anyone has tried sourcing the parts to swap in the 2010+ system into the ex and what it would entail. The 2010 seems to be much more updated and practical with the nice tech features.
From what I could find, the center heat controls + radio + new screen would be needed. Im just wondering if the rest of the system would accept the existing cameras, antennas, plugs etc. if its just the center console + screen that has to be upgraded, that wouldnt be too bad of an investment to get the updated music box and functions.
Any info would be appreciated so i dont have to rip apart my setup.
Ive been also toying with the idea of finding someway to get rid of our monitor and making the stock system put out a video out source ... that way it could be used as a video input into a better system like a DNX9980 or something. Best of both worlds. I did that in my 350z, but it was a lot simpler without the integrated heat controls to just relocate the screen in the stock navi position.
Also, lovin the forum
