Aftermarket Navi

I'm in the market for aftermarket Navi setup. Can anybody give me a good solution for mounting also>?

Ideally I would like to be able to buy everything at best buy. After searching, I believe the Garmin Nuvi is the most preferred on these boards?

How easy is it to install?

Thanks!

The thing is, I don't want to drill anything. But I also don't want to see wires hanging out. I'm thinking the ashtray mount is my best option.

Anyone know where I can get velcro?


Also, should I go to Best Buy or Costco? I'm thinking I want the Garmin Nuvi 255wt. But I also need lifetime traffic.

How about a double-din NAV?

Yeh. Like I said, looks too involved, too much cutting and or modification required.

They're going where the ashtray would be. My car doesn't even come with an ashtray so I'm just losing a cubby hole.
