OEM Value purchase..help needed

Has anyone purchased an OEM navigation unit for their Camry from OEM Equipment? If so, are you happy with the purchase? How difficult was the install? Thanks for any help.

Thanks. I should have done the search first. Now that I have...doesn't sound like anyone has anything good to say about OEM Value. That's too bad. Looks like I will have to consider aftermarket units, like the Pioneer AVIC-Z2.

I'v just begum my search/research. I am trying to evaluate all options. I've heard good things about the Pioneer AVIC-Z2. What do you know about the Signature/Valor to recommend it?

well, you have to buy the sat radio adaptor seperate..which was 250 bucks..plus some wiring and a custom faceplate..install was free...i think grand total was around 1500-1700.

He really likes it. I haven't really played around with it much...but when i'm in the market for one, i'll be going with Pioneer for sure...or Clarion..(i have a friend that works for them, and can get me a deal)
