For you electronics buffs, is there such a thing?
 
Since I don't have Nav, blue tooth, or back up camera in my X, I'm looking for a device (prefer portable but doesn't have to be) that can function as:
1. GPS "4" screen or larger"
2. I can attach a back up camera source to it
3. It has built in blue tooth &FM transmitter

Is there such a thing? the closest thing I found was the Nuvi 660 but I don't know if I can connect a back up camera to it? Anyone know? Any advice? Thx

Garmin 7500. All that.

To get what you want in the most tidy, convenient, and fully intergrated system I think you have to go with something installed. Check out Pioneer's AVIC-Z1 that offers a touch screen, BT ready, iPod ready, satellite radio ready, and rearview camera ready.

The Garmin 7000 series have all you need, just not bluetooth. I love mine :thumbup:

That looks great but I'm not sure about removing the OEM set up for an aftermrket permanent replacement! I'm hoping that might be my last option as I would like it portable so I can use it in my other cars! It's a good suggestion and thx for your response PersonaNonGrata. Hopefully someone has seen a magic portable device with all those functionalities. I'll have to look into the other suggestions by others ... Garmin 7000 & 7500 mmmm...

FYI, the Garmin 7500 is a 7200 with dead reckoning. ;)

If you want to see pics of how it looks, check out the website below. I am about to get this mod on my car. Also, realize that you can have the Pioneer AVIC-Z1 taken out of the car when you decide to sell it and can go back and reinstall your original radio and CD player. Just an idea.

From what I found on these, you can't attach an external video source (i.e DVD player or back up camera??) Worthless to me but thx for the info ... The hunt continues ...
