| I really like the radio that has the Nav and all that jazz. Is it really a PITA to switch out my stock radio?
Just trying to see if its worth the work and money. | |

| i have had my center bezel off a couple times b4 and it's super easy. it's just some constant pressure and patience. as far as upgrading the radio, i don't really know what all goes into upgrading. used double din bezels are a pita to find and the new ones are not all that cheep. | |

| I have a guy in Schaumburg who can do the install cheap.
I tried to do my own and probably could have figured it out but just lost patience and let a shop do it. | |

I think Vic has the Mygig Nav in his chally. You can put one in your Mango but you will need the lockpic thing for it. I think it costs around $250. And Chrystal, You should be able to put the nav in easily but as far as the antenna goes, i have no clue what you have to do there. | |

| The antenna and speed sensor was my problem. I has everything working except the nav, thats when I lost patience and took it to the shop. | |

So where do they mount the antenna? I might be able to install it for anybody upgrading if I knew where its supposed to go. | |

| I would like to as well. I just saw a Kenwood with a built Garmin for Nav.
With my Bezel, I'm probably gonna havve to order a double din from the dealer or somewhere. | |

| Definitely should do it.. I actually think the MyGig w/NAV is a great radio and no need to go aftermarket IMO.. | |
