So i love the integration of the factory navigation into the dash, how ever on a car that is not equipped with it from the factory, i certainly can't justify its purchase.
So to satisfy my needs i took on a little project
03 S80 Navigation screen ($60)
5" Garmin Nuvi 1450 ($129)
some switches and wire, solder, and shrink tubing ($25)
New dash grill and mounting bracket ($50)
Little bit of time and patience and we are off to a good start:
I completely gutted the factory screen down to just the motor:
got that working on its own:
Gutted the garmin down to its skivvies
I'll get the videos working, for some reason they display an error.
Grill and mounting bracket come tomorrow, and then off to the dash for install
Stay tuned:
