My 04 doesn't have Nav and I was looking at a high end Garmin Nuvi $600-$800 and I wanted to know what kind of set up are you guys running who don't have factory Nav? How do you have it wired and mounted that looks the cleanest. Is the Garmin the best nav unit available? pictures would be great.
thanks in advance

I used the suction cup that came with the Nuvi
the one BOBUCRUZ showed was nice but I wouldnt like to look down to look at the map.

I use a PDA alot, so when I had my last car I used a kit from Arkon Navigation systems. I got a special cradle to mount the PDA on the windshiled and a bluetooth GPS receiver. Everything including the software (You can choose between U.S. or europe) was about $300.
