Getting rid of stock Navi (for sale), what are good replacement options?

2limited4u · 10-11-2006, 11:53 AM

Aside from my 02 Limited, I just purchased an 06 and Im getting rid of the stock navigation for something a little more flashy. I havent done much research into it so Im hoping someone else has. I have an AVIC N1 in my 02 and was thinking of going the same route or possibly an N2. Is there any problems with this? The opening in the 06 looks taller than in the 02. I havent actually measured it yet however. The dealer said my best option would be an Eclipse model but I want something with preamps for a mild stereo system. Can the factory sub be reused with an aftermarket setup?? Also, if anyone is in need, Im selling the stock Navi unit to help pay for the new one, including the ridiculous install (down with Tweeter!!!!) Shoot me an email at toolimited4u@hotmail.com if anyones interested.

Check this audio section. There are a lot of people getting those. Eclipse does look like a good choice, though.

Im tempted to stay with the AVIC series though because Im familiar with the controls and setup. If I went eclipse itd have to be a better model than the ones the dealerships try to install. I want at least two sets of preamps and I dont belive the ones they install come with any.
