DVD GPS Navigation player

Hi Guys,

I'm thinking about buy this unit from ebay

http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll...e=STRK:MESE:IT

what do you guys think?Also does anyone know any discount code for ebay. I was reading in a post on TN about Bing but I cant find the 10% discount anywhere. I'm ready to buy it and install it. Just got my Highlander last week and want to hook it up. I would buy the Rosen unit but its about $1200, the one on ebay is half the price and look a lil better to me . Got my tax money back and I'm ready to rock and roll just need to be pointed to the right direction. This bad boy have the picture in picture screen has anyone seen that before? They can also copy 6 cd and save it in the dvd player memories but who need that right. Everyone have mp3 now. PM me if you have a ebay discount code and I'll install it and give you a full review and pics. Thanks

Good find: Yes, it looks decent and attractive for the price. But, just remember that every system has it's ups and downs. Please check and read the details thoroughly before you buy.

I have seen people buying these and sometimes hard to figure out why some functions do not work and the seller /tech support is practically impossible to deal with or unreachable.

Before you buy from anyone, ask them about the following:

1: Temperature resistance (cold/hot temperature performance),
2: System reliability, when you accidentally stop the car's engine without switiching of the Nav Radio unit,
3: Map updates,
4: You may JBL: so ask JBL set up instruments,
5: Other functions: some systems do not work when nav in use (for example: volume buttons etc., There is lag period of 1 minute because the the whole PC resource is used for Nav),
6: Text to speech.

Please think more and ask them.


These are what I learned from Rav4world.com when I had my Rav4.


Please also see the other links I have posted some from ebay and some other websites.

Please see, I just started another thread (For Group Buy) which will help to get more discount for these Nav units if anybody is willing to purchase along with you.

But, your finding is a good find and the best value for money. Keep it up.

Please do not forget to update all of us here so we can learn about the system in case you buy it.

The dealer put my XM antenna on the dash and it did not work to well. Arter taking it back 3x I bought a new antenna and put it on the roof.
