Nward Posted April 11, 2008 Share Posted April 11, 2008 Hi, First let me say that with about 7,000 miles on our FEH that it is a great SUV. We purchaced the SUV with out the NAV unit as it put the price to high for us. Can a factory NAV be added? Can I get a Unit from the Junk Yard or ebay and just plug it in with the new dash piece? Thanks for the help. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks for the help. You might be able to if you can find a new Ford Hybid in a yard w/ NAV, not sure if an older unit would plug in. Of course the other more logical idea IMHO would be to just get a Garmin, Tom Tom, etc. They've come down in price (under $300 now for a nice unit) and are portable!

There is a rather complicated wiring harness/controller that goes into the factory nav system to allow it to read the battery output, so installing one would not be a simple. I'm using a portable Garmin on my hybrid, and enjoy it a lot. The frequent map updates and points of interest are handy! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
