Default Anyone put in a type of navigation system???

Not sure if this should be here or in Computer Diagnostics/Tuning. Here seems more appropriate.

So i was thinking if you got a small LCD screen, maybe 3x5 or so, but where could you mount it? Has anyone else done this to theirs? Getting parts is not the problem, i just need to know where to start. I'll already have Scanmaster on the car (if that makes any difference).

Thanks for all help and suggestions in advance.

I have a map in my car.. does that count?? <img border="0" title="" alt="[Wink]" src="gr_images/icons/wink.gif" />

Seriously though.. if you wanted on the best bet would be to have it linked to a LCD headunit with a pop out screen.. (would also control the CD, Stereo and probley DVD..)

Nav systems make me think luxury cars.. not musclecars but it would come in handy at times <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="gr_stretch.gif" />

Im sure SOMEONES done it.. anyone?

I would say ask around in the stereo/electronic's forum, probably get more responses. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="gr_grin.gif" /> I saw it at a show one time, although I didn't take pic's. Doh, I'm like Steve though, not the exact thing I think about when I think muscle cars. Don't really need a map to go 1/4 mile down a straight strip. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="gr_grin.gif" /> <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="gr_grin.gif" />
