Attention After market Navigation users
 

Anyone using after market Navigation system such as Kentwood or Pioneer on their X5?
Can you provide some insight for the after market system:
1. Where can I find a reputable place to purchase/install one without them butcher my dash and wiring? I live in southern California.
2. Would other functions such as trip mileage, time, date.... still working with the after market unit.
3. I would like a unit with navigation, blue tooth hand free phone, back up camera, Mp3, Ipod hook up, CD player.
4. and lastly... are you happy with your after market unit.
Thanks a bunch X5ers....

I own a 2006 3.0 without OEM navigation system, only radio and CD player and i live in Southern California. (boy I regretted not getting a factory navigation unit).

I don't have any of these but some folks have gone this route.

buy a portable one, nuvi 350 works great. $399. thats it. buy an e70 with all options you listed. well, i am not putting any more $ in the e53 as the e70 came out. anyway, i believe some members did install the pioneer which includes everything you list. do the search. i think it will cost you around $2k installed. again, nuvi 350 works like charm and i could take it anywhere, any car.
