Question for you guys. Im thinking aobut getting the stock navigation system put into my car, i have dual climate control its a 05 honda accord ex v6 i was wondering if the nav system is any good and if people were happy with it and how much would it cost me to put one in.

there is a member working on this project. jhowkins. do a search

in all honesty, i would just buy a garmin.

well the price for a stocknav for 05 is about 900 with shipping

for the same price with shipping you can get a deck that plays movies and has nav, and can read dvd +/-r's

I am surprised its that cheap for a new unit. I doubt it is plug and play though like the ad says. I would think you'd need some type of antenna, unless its already installed...

+ 1 on the garmin. easier to upgrade info.

Boo... don't use the garmin!!! The Honda navi has a bigger screen and it doesn't look like an eye-sore on your dash.

I can say first-hand that if you wait around, you can find all the parts you need off ebay for under $1000 - thats the head unit, upper vent panel with subdisplay, dvd navigation ecu (in trunk), and the navigation dvd. Lastly, you'll need a wire harness to connect everything together. Is it plug and play? Absolutely - but only if you have the plug'n'play wire harness

Still interested? Check my site out.

Also, for anyone reading... I have all the connectors for the wire harnesses in stock finally. It took me nearly 3 months, but I have them now. I'll be launchinga storeon my site soon so that you can buy what you need easily.

i would rather have the OEM navi, but its not very transportable when i travel.

My online store is finally live. I welcome you to come have a visit, I will be posting useful information including the official Honda navigation diagnostics manual (PDF format) amongst other useful tidbits soon!

jhowkins your site doesn't work
 

your site geekeng.com doesn't work. Have you given up on this upgrade or completed it and never really did a write up for it? I would maybe be interested in buying a harness but i also need more information on doing this project and it seemed your website was the place to go.
Also would it be possible to search the junkyards to find the dvd rom, head unit, and/or even this wire harness everyone talks about being so hard to find/expensive and ripping it out of a accord with the navi?

You do realize that you are responding to a thread that is 4.5 years old, right?
