VZ ( 05 ) Factory Sat Nav ( What to replace it with ? )

[MattK]

Yes

So someone is trying to help you with a problem you've posted. And you hit them with this nonsense?

Good luck finding a solution.

YES = How about that !

Im sure I was clear the first time -
Though Im not sure if people bother to read properly these days ...

( GM decided to go with Sat Nav , whilst most other Manufacturers have gone with GPS ( What they call their units ) , so I was simply differentiating ... )

Perhaps I left too much room for interpretation ?

It doesn't matter what you have now as you'll presumable be ripping it out.

I've been personally considering one of these lately.
Has both GPS and reverse camera.

YES ! Been looking at them .. I might leave the factory Nav in place and simply replace the Entertainment system ...
Seems to be several variations available from around $350 +

Yeah .. I wonder if there all the same with different faces on them ?

The Chinese love to encase internals 50 different ways , to make you think you have a choice .. When in reality its the same guts in a different case .
Have to try and find some product reviews .. Did Holden offer something similar ? , might have to visit a few Commodore wreckers ..

I just installed a reverse camera into the Factory system, no splicing of cables. just an adapter.

That is a perfect example of why it pays to shop around. Even though motorformula's unit is a fitted price, that is still one hell of a saving.
Good on you Tasmaniak for pointing that one out, as I was actually considering purchasing that unit.

I have the sat nav book for my factory sat nav in my 06 vz

 

[MattK]

Hmmm

I have the sat nav book for my factory sat nav in my 06 vz

Interesting , I have seen different units in the VZ ..
There is a video on youtube , and the GPS is different to mine .. I guess Holden must have had more than one version on offer ..
Mine must be the very basic one , and has no maps ..
I,ll have to get the details ...

All I can find is = MS 3200
Though Im getting the hang of it , ( its some what basic - and slow to use )
For inserting a destination , Im guessing its by suburb , then street ... ( Havent tried it as yet )
