In my situation, I've ordered the steering wheel control harness, traffic receiver, Sirius receiver, backup camera, and iphone harness. The unit also streams music over bluetooth, controls an iphone with the harness attached, includes Parrot Bluetooth (one of the best). Overall, it's the whole ball of wax. There is a DNX9690 model that adds some fluff like 3D buildings in the nav, DD 5.1 surround sound, etc but it costs about 2/3 more than the 6960.
.....I think Garmin has the best Nav, so I'd go Kenwood too if I were going for an integrated unit. I really use Nav infrequently, so a $125 Portable Garmin is fine for my use..

What bracket is holding the Garmin? Aftermarket or Garmin supplied? Thanks.
