Hey!

I am looking to install an OEM, or OEM looking touch screen navigation unit in my 05 3i. I really want something that fits right into the dash without it looking ugly... Does anyone have an ideas.. or have done this? If so, please post pictures. I am looking to do this asap. Ive' always wanted an indash navigation.. Thank you

I don't know how OEM it will look but check out Eonon.com and search for the D5102. They also have it on Amazon. I bought it for my '04 3s and it fits PERFECT!!! GPS, Bluetooth, DVD. It's really nice for the price but check out the reviews. Its SUPER easy to install and sounds great. Hope that helped a little.

I tried to post a pic but can't get a URL for it.

Thanks so much! Let me ask you this, I have the radio controls in my steering wheel. Will is still work with this navigation?

Yup. It works like the stock stereo.

You could also go the route of a dash kit and after market head unit. I have a Pioneer AVH-3300BT. The dash kit is pretty clean and easy to install and the head unit is double din so it has a nice sized screen. You can plug your iPhone in with a Pioneer cable and with the right GPS app you have navigation on the screen. Plus you get a ton if other features. Just my 2 cents. Best of luck in getting a good unit in there whatever you choose. Most anything is an improvement over the stock unit.
