Friends: 0 |  How badly is Nav crippled?? I hope to have my 2010 V with advanced tech in a few weeks. I am used to an aftermarket Pioneer Avic with all the constraints bypassed. How badly is the factory nav crippled? What can't I do while driving? |

Friends: 1 | Re: How badly is Nav crippled?? WELL, that's a tough question. If someone comes up with a bypass method (as in the 2004-2009), then you're somewhat limited. I do think that you'll be able to do MORE than folks with the Gen II though. If you are used to the Pioneer unit and its unfettered access whilst driving, you'll be quite displeased. |

Friends: 0 | Re: How badly is Nav crippled?? I also did the PS nav hack. Works VERY well. I put my control buttons right next to the start button, about an inch from the steering wheel. Also, when you remove the console, you can remove all of the plastic parts without using tools. There is space behind the front cupholder to fit your fingers to pop off the plastic around the shifter. |
