hey guys, just curious if any of you have the navi system. i see bezels and whatnot for sale but never thought much of it till my old man got a 09 Civic with the navi and its pretty sweet. Looking for pictures of the dash install and opinions on the system. Thanks!!

 

There are definitely threads on this. It's a lot of custom work to get it installed properly since there's only a JDM (RHD) bezel.

 

There is no factory Nav system for the North American market. You would have to custom build one.

 

Yup. I have an alpine navi custom installed into where the rear-view mirror used to be.

 

I don't have an iPhone yet (been waiting for the 3G model) but can the iPhone be mounted somewhere to act as a GPS? The new iPhone has A-GPS (assisted GPS) and was wondering if the modifry mounts might be modified to hold the iPhone... just a thought.

 

That should work. All you will need is something to hold the iPhone.

 

Personally, I use my Blackberry 8310 (with Telenav) and a Proclip mount. You should easily be able to do something similar with the iPhone.

 

Do you have to pay for the extra navi service on iphone or is that just free?

 

Free. Iphones use ATTs ground antennas to triangulate your location. It doesn't use GPS.
