Sat Navigation is in Australia
Today after my wheels got fitted i saw a yellow rx8 with a alpine tv fitted to the fatory navigation spot. It looks so good. At the light i spoke to him and i asked
how much it cost, he told me that fitting alone cost 2000+
so i guess if you guys want a sat nav it will cost you 6000+
he did it in bondi junction somewhere so if anyone is keen to get it done then you can go check it out yourself

Exactly, whats the point of buying one if the factory one is cheaper, you'd just be wasting money.

We asked Mazda about importing the all the componentry from Japan to do the factory install here, and were told 10- 15 K installed... but they'd have to pull the headlining of the roof out, and most of the dash, and they couldn't guarantee it'd be rattle free.... etc etc
so we went nahhh.. we'll just get a Navman and then we can use it in both cars

Hey Hymee,
What is it exactly that you do?
And where?
I used to work for 2 companies building in car navigation myself
Before I started at Boeing.
I used to design all the hardware and write all the firmwre.
