Navigation Question

Is there a way to switch the navigation to point the way I'm pointing? Kinda like instead of North always being the same way in the screen? I want it to show me as up or forward.

Any ideas??

Yup. When viewing the map, click the joystick. Then click left and up until you highlight the icon in the upper left corner. Then click to change the map orientation.

I tried that, all it does is scan around through the map and what not. Am I being dumb? Did I misread what you typed??

Try again. If you just push vertically on the joystick it should work as I described. If you end up scanning around the map, try pushing down again. It should the let you select the buttons - push left and up to get the the control in the upper left.

Right after I made the last post I tried it again and it worked. I guess that I was just being a dumba$s.

Thanks for the help.

Not really worth the money, but I got the car for invoice so I pretty much paid what sticker would have been without the Navigation.

I havent tried to hook anything else up to the screen.

imo the nav is totally worth it! I just wish it integrated with the oem stereo a bit better.

I've seen kits that allow you to hook video feeds into the nav screen. looks pretty sweet.

check out this system for one example
