Thanks Mwedge! Good to have people like you around on NAM...

I'm sending in my online order right now...

 

I'm kind of a newbie here on NAM. About to order a MC. Am thinking of ordering the Portable Nav instead of Factory. The dealership installation sets it up where the sound is seperate, only coming from the Nuvi, not through the speakers.

So my question. I see that newministuff is overseas. I'm in New Jersey. Are you guys talking about 2nd Gen MC's that are sold in the US or is this Interface for overseas cars? Easy to order from the US?
Thanks.

 

Hi
We ship to the USA every day
Airmail or express courier

 

Can someone familiar with both the Factory Nav and the Mini NUVI Nav give me their understanding of the features, benefits and any drawbacks of each?

I'm trying to decide which one to get for a new MC. Of course the biggest drawback of the Fac Nav is the price tag. The Fac Nav looks good in the large speedometer so I know there is an appearance benefit. But are other benefits of the Fac Nav enough to warrent the extra cost?

When not needing to use Fac Navigation does the Nav System offer other functionality? I believe it links to the Parking assist but not getting that option.

I'm getting the Convenience Pkg if that matters. Will use bluetooth and IPOD. Just trying to figure out if there is enough benefits to justify getting Fac Nav or should I just get the Mini Nuvi.

Thanks.

 

Has anyone tried to use a Garmin 205 or similar with the factory mount? I want to know if you can alter the power and mount for the newer device.
