Looking to replace stock Navi

Any suggestions? I would like something that plays DVD. Sorry guys too lazy to search.

If that's the only change you want, why not just add DVD playback to your stock navi?

The stock Navi seems out dated to me. I would like have the option to add a rear camera also.

The same device that adds DVD to your navi also adds rear camera support

I thought about getting stock navi, but that screen is just too small now that I look at it having seen the Pioneer or Alpine offerings that also give you nav.

I'd jump on an aftermarket navi system, but I don't want to lose steering wheel controls and dash/cluster display

you should get a AVIC-N3 or D3(if you dont like popup screens)

DVD playback, set navigation can be saved into the hard drive, rearview camera, etc. pretty muchw aht u want.

but one thing, the aftermarkets make the car look a lil "cheaper"

If I knew I can buy a OEM navi for the price I paid for my AVIC, I woulda went OEM,

the dealer wanted to charge me $7000 for the OEM navi!

Aftermarket Nav system

I'm also looking at a replacement, I was told today that I would have to rewire the speakers etc. to use the new Pioneer. Any truth to that? I thought by now they would have a harness made.
