Hi, Is it possible to install a navigation system after the car leaves
the factory? I was told that with the Infiniti G35's this wasn't
possible or that it never quite worked right. Is the same true for
the TL? If it is possible, would it integrate the sun sensor into the
climate control like it would if it left the factory with the nav
system?

How much would it cost?

Thanks

Oh boy... Remove/upgrade heat/AC controller, install a honkin' big
wiring harness, satellite antenna/preamp, replace a fair portion of
the dash, plus the dealer cost of a replacement electronics system....
My guess would be close to $4000, installed.

My '99 has that navi integrated all over the place, and I'd guess the
later models are even more so.

There are several aftermarket/in dash systems which you can install, plus
several good Garmin and Magellan systems that sit on the dash. In addition,
there are a few PDA based nav systems.

I've heard that the Magellan systems are very good.

Ditto with Kenwood.
