Where do I get it and who would install it? Is it a straight drop in? How much does it cost and anyone has had experience with it?

It's not as easy as a straight drop. I haven't done it but I've looked into it. The cheapest I've seen one was on ebay for $650. You have to make sure it's a low speed and you'll need to get a wiring adapter for it. It's a great system but for the price there are better nav's out there. The best thing about this though is that it would fit in flush with a little modification and look slick.

It is very important to me to look like a factory option. Nothing looks worse than a radio that looks out of place. Prices I checked are closer to 2 grand! What are other alternatives?

For 2008 and up, it is a straight drop in!

I was thinking of my '05! Sorry about that. Here is one on ebay, it's refurbished and I'm not sure if its a low speed or not but I'm sure you can ask.

you will have to cut the opening a bit to fit it in, it will bolt in the original location, and you need a lock pick to plug it in, i paid $485 shipped for mine from ebay, but it does have an issue, turns out the gps antenna jack was broke off and superglued back on, that made me hot, but the seller is working it out with me, but have seen quite a few in that price range, so do your homework...

If Altair logs in soon, he has his all set up. He scored a sweet deal on Ebay. The seller had it listed wrong His setup is def nice!
