Default Navigation system on a TA?

Hey i was just giving a navigation system and was thinking of installing it on my ws-6. Does anyone in here have one on their car? Just want to see how it would look or if it would actually fit.

If it has a screen like a dvd screen, it would mount where you a/c is. I've seen them with people re-locating there ac controls to their glove boxes. I will try to find pics and post them here.

You could just go with a flip out indash monitor and a dvd nav system. The monitor would replace your factory in dash stereo. And the nav "brain" would be mounted somewhere in the trunk usually near the spare tire.

That's what I did, alpine setup brain in the back, antenna in the spoiler. No problems

The nav brain is mounted behind the plastic panel on the very back on the driverside.
The pic labeled "head2" is out of my first ta, in that car I cut out a little foam and put it under the driverside backseat. both have worked just fine. The picture is really just a flip out monitor, sorry I don't have a pic with the head unit closed. You can get all of the pics you need here http://www.alpine-usa.com/ Click on products & MMStations to see what Alpine has to offer. They list all of the retail prices, but it will probably be cheaper at actual stores.
I have the dva-900 in my car, The older pic was a cva-1005, Remeber that alpine is usually the most expensive stuff, other companies make less-expensive, but still good quality. I went with alpine because the alpine navigation is the best in my opinion.
