Hey guys,
is it possible to change the screen size to a nav screen size LCD.... will the image stretch... i currently have the small screen and want the bigger LCD, is it possible to just replace the screen and everything will work out?

If you just swap the screen you will get the same size image which will be left aligned. It WILL NOT cover the entire screen. If you want to use the entire screen you will need to change your MASK to a CCC.

You're looking for information on retrofitting a CCC system (also referred to as retrofitting nav.)
The instructions below will give you an idea on how to do it but I still recommend searching the forums since there are people with real world experiences that have posted about it.
