I just want to make sure I don't mess up anything before I do my swap next week. I have done some research, but just wanted some opinions and advice. I seem to have bad luck when it comes to these things. I don't want to fudge any steps.

1 - Some people say you don't have to, but should I disconnect the battery before the swap?

2 - After install, (and if I have to reconnect the battery) should I let the unit sit for a bit until I turn on the car?

3 - I have a Nav cd, is it better to have a dvd for its first run?

4 - After the swap, should I instantly load a Nav cd or DVD?

5 - If I need to upgrade the SW, should I wait a little until the computer and Nav fully link up, or just go for it?

I hope I don't sound repetative, I just want to be ultra careful. I really appreciate the help, and thanks in advance.

KM
