Can OEM Nav be added after the fact?

I'll say one thing about Porsche. Want to make a 90k car a 100k car real quick. Have the dealers install options like the phone and the Navigation system. I would get the Garmin. Al those fancy buttons will be useless but you will have more money.

My wife bought me a TomTom 510 for Christmas last year. Easy to use, excellent directions, nice verbal prompts. I have been very satisfied with it.

I have quotes from 3 dealers...Newport Beach CA, The Auto Gallery LA, Rusnak Westlake...all are with in$100 and around $4K for Porsche NAV installed on a 997. Can be done clean. I know because when I was looking for my 997 I had to have NAV and would have installed it if I found one without it. Thankfully, the one I found already had NAV and a ton of other goodies...
Good luck!
Good luck!
Anyone who pays $4k is a fool.

I have the factory Nav in my 07 997S, and frankly the Porsche Nav is just acceptable. The only big benefit of the factory Nav is that it integrates with the Bose and PCM Phone Moduel, so it will mute each other out accordingly.
I also have a Garmin 360 (from Costco Online, $399) to use in my rental cars whenever I travel. Excellent GPS and tiny to carry/hide.
If I don't have the factory Nav in my car, I would just get the Garmin and save the money.
With best regards,

I believe our price is $2700 installed... Dont quote me on it though...
It isnt a long install but you need to be careful when dont parts of the install, you can do a lot of damage... Ask me how i know..
