So im looking for an RX8. A very specific one but the problem is i only found one that has everything i want (BLack GT, red.black leather WITH NAV). So my question is .. how hard would it be to install the OEM Nav into a car that doesnt have it ?? If its easy then ill just buy one that doesnt have it and then install it. But if its hard ill probably still keep my eye out for an RX8 with it that im looking for. I keep finding so many RX8 that are close to my requirements the only thing missing is the NAV. SO help me out please... i did search but nothing this specific. Thanks

WOWZA!!! I think ill keep trying to find one with Nav then. See i like everything to be compact and to look like it was from the factory. Putting a garmin wouldnt look like it was one unit. Thanks for the info

Save money and buy a aftermarket HU. It will give you a stock look with a metra kit, plus give you ALOT more features for 1/3 of the price. The stock nav is mediocre and the non-Bose radio is HORRIBLE. I can't speak for the Bose radio but mine is non Bose and probably the worst radio Ive ever heard in such a nice car.

Is it possible to get the Nav hood but use a different program or w.e. I dont care what navgation program i jsut want that stock look of the oem Navi.

Buy the stock Nav hood from a breakers and install a Car PC.. can't recommend it enough.
Swap the screen out for a nice touchscreen display and you've got MP3, Sat-Nav, Handsfree, reversing camera etc etc..

I guess ill do that. Will it still be able to flip up with the motor and is it possible to use the buttons infront of the seat warmers or do I have to get. Rid of that ? I do wanna have the buttons

Zukabak

It'll flip up with the buttons & tilt etc etc.. however those joystick & buttons by the heated seats won't be used. They're not needed if you fit a touchscreen.

^ But is it possible to be able to use them with another navigation program. I dont like the idea of leaniing over while driving to zoom in and out etc....

Just buy a garmin. I have the built in nav and it works fine but i can not take it out of one car and put in in another car. Plus the gamin is a lot cheaper and some come with lifetime traffic.
