AFTERMARKET GPS» yea baby!

What do you think guys?

bigger screen, 3-D nav maps, voice recognition, touch screen, TV tuner already installed, internet wap2, 3 voice overs to choose from, and best of all, it fits seemlessly in the dash! ! !

WOW

WOW....I was wondering when something like that would arise. How much, post details!!! Is that a custom system or is it a manufactured kit? I saw a guy with an Audi A4 produce something of his own and I was pretty close in asking him to do it to my Benz. Touch Screen, PC Hooked up, etc.

I emailed the company and got this reply:

Subject: The affair of an inquiry

I'm sorry if wrong.
Because I can't understand English well.

Sorry.
The navigation system of our company can be used only in Japan.
The attachment to a car is possible.
However, map data is a thing in Japan area only.
Moreover, since television etc. cannot be used, I think that it cannot be
used.

Thank you for an inquiry.

Goodluck there are other makes like audi that have SWEET DVD setups in japan, but crap in the rest of the world. Bad news is that they will not work in cars outside of japan. If you try it, goodluck

Doesn't Japan use a different GPS system then the United States? Someone check, if thats true there isn't a prayer this will work.

However, it is a very nice looking unit, this is how command should be in the US.

I think that is close. Either that or the maps they use are completly different. have you seen the detail on maps in countries like korea and japan? amazing detail, its awesome. Then again a small country is much easier to map and the demand is much higher. On top of that, the suppliers in these countries produce much higher quality products.

Hello,

I'm sorry if wrong.
Because I can't understand English well.
I am very glad to have the product of our company loved.

However, it is impossible to send a product to you.
Because, no function except a compact disk can be used.
Moreover, support of attachment or use cannot be performed.

and, There is no schedule which manufactures the navigation system which can
be used for the moment in the United States.

I'm sorry.

Thank you for an inquiry.
BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO! ! !
o yea, it retails for only 995.67 USD too...*sigh* the search goes on.

I think you should pitch this idea to Sunman - he will be unable to resist
