my car after delivery, or is this something that can only be delivered from the factory?

 

I don't think you can do it. Even if you could the system itself is $2100 plus there would be a lot of extra labor involved. Your best bet is a portable solution. MINI makes a portable NAV you can get from your MA, or check on Magellan or Tom Tom. I have friends with both of those and they really like them a lot.

 

I was told by my MA that it cannot be added later.

 

Nope, can't be done.

And as BAD as the OEM system is, (it doesn't even function as advertised right now since you can't search for POI's), I still would not own the car without it for the other integration reasons.

 

Dave here in Lakewood: Don't waste your money on Mini's. Will explain via email.

 

Huh???

 

I love my nav.. factory installed.. i seriously would be lost without it.. no pun intended.. at this point, i would not care if it cost me double what i paid for it.. what it has saved me in aggrevation and angst as far as not getting lost.. it has well paid for itself time and time again

 

so it cant be done or does it just cost $2100 + labor?
