Who has a aftermarket Navi

[BOSS]

Got a Motorola from Radio Shack. Couldn't be happier - I can browse maps as I'm driving too which is always helpful to find short cuts in DFW traffic!

Have a Kenwood 8120 in my 08 LT. Works great, and wiring it up was not too bad at all. Used PAC OS4 and PAC SWI-JACK for integration.

Did you have the stock Navigation already? I don't have it, so i'm also debating getting a used stock one or aftermarket.

yeah, I actually have the red fire background setup since it matches fairly well with the wood trim.

yeah I put a double throw switch in that uses either the standard ebrake output or connects to ground, so I get stock functionality or I can fake it and let the wife watch video

I bought the Tahoe with non-Bose CD/XM only (plus RSE) but had them install OEM Nav. It worked but was super quiet since the OEM Nav requires the Bose amp since all of its outputs are 'pre-amp'

I took it back and had the original CD HU put back in and I bought the Kenwood. Much better deal, quality and features

I like the stock navigation systems, but I am curious if anyone has put in a aftermarket navi in?

I have one aftermarket Navig system and it is working fine. You can go for it without hesitation. Even aftermarket parts gives warranty.

I know you had a thread in another forum with a GREAT write-up on your install. I'm getting ready to do this same upgrade, except with a DNX 5120 that I pulled from another vehicle. Is there any way that you could be persuaded to re-create your install steps here, it looked like it was going to be very helpful to me...

TT
