i wish there was a way this feature sucks, i would rather type it in while driving instead of pulling onto the shoulder if I95 and have cars wiz by you at 80mph 6 inches from the car.

I hear there is a an adapter for the wiring harness that plugs into the back of it. It basically fools it into thinking that the car is parked so that you can use the navigation and play cds.

You can also slightly depress your e-brake enough to where the light comes on, but doesn't engage the brake. Definite interest in this mysterious adapter. If I could just find a decent schematic I could easily make one for all of you guys.

Ive HEARD it was $250, but I'm sure you can make one on your own for much less.
