This is what I have found so far. Looks a little work intensive but not that complecated. Parts cost could be an issue though with all the stuff involved.

Virgin Nav install

For the amount of time/money you will spend retrofitting OEM navigation, you can get a much higher resolution tomtom gps that would have more features for a fraction of the price.

I agree. I am currently using my Dell PDA (Axim X50v) with the Dell Nav BT module. Works great but the factory nav has a much better look and feel (especially BT Phone and other functions).
