something for the radio/nav runs to the instrument cluster?

The speed sensor I believe, and one goes to the LCM, crimp on connectors.

its part of the harness and it should come with vampire connectors.

Thanks all... great info.

I think for now, I will do a small Nuvi mounted on pro clip by the vents and hide the power wire with a hidden feed and not a lighter socket feed.

It will be the cheapest option while I live with the stock system and save my pennies. If ultimately I get a deal to retrofit, the Nuvi should be very sellable. (although I could put it in my truck ... a 1985 F-150 ,how cool would that be :rofl: )

Again, great info at short notice and I promise I will start posting my mods to add to the data base,

David

Just took a quick pic for you.

I took at that website for as I'm looking for a better way to mount a Garmin nuvi in my wife's MB SUV. The website navigation is not good but there appears to be some interesting solutions such as this one (3 pictures):

There does not appear to be a way to order the "bracket" shown in the bottom picture --- one can order the knob. And it's not clear what cars the bracket will work on or what colors it comes in. I've sent them an email.
