So now that you've had the navi for about a month now do you have an updated review for it? mainly how well the gps works? it has voice guidence but does it say the name of the street or does it just say turn left ahead? does it take a long time to connect? get you lost? etc...

I know there are better brands out there, but I really like this one, doesn't say street names only turn here or turn there, loads up pretty quick , maps are SD based, very accurate.Great purchase, I would recommend.

Hey Bundy you have a pic of the tray you used in your Sentra? Im assuming it was the same idea as what I have going on? Double din opening in the OEM surround, single DIN radio, single DIN tray? I just went to Advance Auto Parts and they have nothing for me....

I thought I had the tray still, guess my wife threw it out while cleaning the basement, this is the only clear pic of the tray, got it at Autozone.

EXACTLY the set-up Im trying to get to. So many issues happening now. I bought the universal tray from Crutchfield (too lazy to drive around looking for it yesterday), so that should go in no problem. Now Im trying to get my HU trim piece into that OEM double din surround...it doesnt fit, too wide. Sooooo...I just bought a Dremmel and am going to chop it. Will also be able to cut into the OEM surround to mount the switch for the DVD hack.

Hoping to have all of this done Friday/Saturday...unless my intake and Y-Pipe deliver before then...in which case I will have to flip a coin.

Thanks again for the help.
