Beautiful construction. Do u like the navigation?
im now told there is a pop-up nav screen from a head unit that will clear the dash overhang. I think it is made my pioneer. Anyone know of one?

The Nav is awesome. I have had one in my vechicles for a few years now. It is Touchscreen, great resoultion and very thourough directions. The nav gives voice guidance that comes over the car speakers, which it mutes first. It has just about every restaurnt, airport, hotel, bank teller, park sports arena and others i cant even think of. It has thei phone numberand adress. Lots of features, make life so much easier when going some place you arent familiar with.

3. Where did you put the other three toggle switches?
Thanks for your reply,

Thanks for your reply,
I have had the Pioneer and I have had the Kenwood. B oth are good units, but for me the Kenwood seems to be a better unit. Plus it has music Keg support which is importaint to me.
The other toggle switches are on the side of the console, can get to them easy enough, but i never use those three anyway.
