Any of you guys recommend a good navigation installation for the Gen 3? Is one available from the factory? Also, how does modding the gen 3 w/ Nav affect resale?

Buy a Garmin Nuvi 660. Its portable, use it in all your cars. Most bang for the buck. Stick it to the windshield, plug it in and off you go. No downside

The Factory RB1 Nav radio is now available as factory option on the 08. It also swaps right in on 03-06. You can also add sirius at that time. Both antenna for the gps and sirius fit nicely under the dash and look right up through the dashboard. Call Chuck Tator if you are going to do it yourself, he can tell you exactly how and where to put the stuff.

I have a GEN II so can't quite picture the dash layout of yours, but I just got a Nuvi 680 a couple days ago and came up with this mount in a couple of minutes for zero dollars. It utilizes the factory suction mount which seems to be a very good one to me. I velcroed a small piece of thin metal to the dash and then suctioned the Garmin to it. Looks like it's going to work pretty slick! I looked at a lot of the mounts out there....the vent mounts seemed a little chinsy. I plan on leaving the mounting metal on permanently, but it could certainly be removed easy enough if one wanted. Double sided tape would work too. I'm sure this little piece could be dressed up a lot better, but the idea will work just fine. It's in a perfect location for driver and passenger and not interfering with anything.

ABSOLUTELY LOVELY INTERIOR!factory Rb1 works great and looks right at home. Really cleans up the interior. Look on ebay as you can usually find a good deal. I got mine for $675 while dealerships are selling them for ober 1200.
If you go the RB1 route, be sure to checkout the installation description I put here a while back.

I bought a Pioneer. MP3, NaV, Dvd, and kicker speakers love it the screen is big and you can open it or keep it closed. Not cheap but nice unit.
