Yes, go by your dealer for a price quote on the navigation bezel and then hit up eBay for the proper GPS unit. I'm planning on doing the same thing eventually, so if you get it done, be sure to post back. =P

:welcome: to TN, btw.

 

I just have an eerie feeling that I'd have to drop about two grand to have it done.

 

Nah, the bezel I'm going to guess will be less than $100, and the most expensive I've seen the GPS itself online is about $700. Install it all yourself (Should be Plug & Play for everything,) and you're good to go for well under 1k.

2010 Corolla Type S - Navigation?

The Corolla's are just S, no Type-S!

Is it possible to have the navigation system that would go in an XRS model installed into a Type S model Corolla? If so, any ideas on what such a project would cost?

You can get the Navi package. This package is available to the S, XLE, and XRS models. So I'm sure you can just install like plug and play. But I've heard you can find a better H/U with a Navi and more features! :thumbsup:

I believe Schorsh (Sp?) has a double-din dash kit available for the Corolla's

 

:welcome: to TN and just FYI.....its an S not type S:thumbsup: and yeah should be plug and play as BLiT has said and shouldn't be too expensive:ugh3:

 

scorshe bro.

 

just to reiterate what has been said...

Corolla S

NOT

Corolla Type-S

This is Toyota not Acura

 

Lol everyone's anal about the type-S thing here. You'll get use to it don wolly!

 

Dash kit: http://www.scosche.com/vehicle.sear.../?applicationGuideID=15044 &make=TOYOTA&year=2010&model=COROLLA+Dark+Gray+Dash

I used one of these to fab a 7" touch screen into my dash. I don't know if it is the same thing for the navi unit, but that is a double din kit. Oh, and its Scosche. No r. I have a pc installed in my car for nav/phone/music etc

Taking apart everything to remove the radio is dead simple, as mentioned the factory nav can probably be simply plugged in. I'd totally get one of the pioneer avic units before a factory setup tho.

 

Type-S sounds cooler to me.

 

GT-R sounds pretty cool too, but just like Type-S, that is not what the car is.

 

I'm not completely sure about this, but if it's similar to putting an OEM navi in a none navi Camry you need to consider if your S comes with the standard or JBL system. If it's JBL, then it's plug and play. If it's just a standard setup, then you'll need to get a special adapter for it to work.

 

I don't think so because the Corolla NAV unit does not have JBL speakers at all. Another thing is that with NAV Corollas, Bluetooth is not available (no buttons on the right wheel). That was one reason why I ordered my car with the JBL instead of the NAV.
