Re: GPS Nav system
I wouldn't waste money on a built in unit, getting updates for them is costly and with a decent Euro unit with lifetime maps costing sub £100 why bother?

Re: GPS Nav system
Well I went for a full double DIN unit the 968, last thing I wanted was some cheap naff £70 unit stuck to the windscreen on some plastic sucker arrangement! it's a Porsche after all, not some halfords accessory department with a dangly wire in the fag lighter socket!Sean Smallman wrote:I wouldn't waste money on a built in unit, getting updates for them is costly and with a decent Euro unit with lifetime maps costing sub £100 why bother?

Re: GPS Nav system
Think same as you even if it not as good as the Halfords lol
Did you need any additional part or just the head unit.
Thanks
