Nav System/Bose Audio (For owners who want to change the system out)

This is due to the subsystems that need to be added like the GPS antenna, ECU inputs into the NAV system, and a few more. Also all eBay sales of the factory nav system that I have seen do not include the GPS antenna. The GPS antenna is not the antenna that is on the roof, it is actually in the dash above the HVAC fan/ glove box. Depending on what which system are starting with you might need a new steering wheel so you can have useable steering wheel controls.
