GaMike · Mar 28, 2015

I am fixing to install a a Crux box behind factory radio. Anyone have any tips to removing dash and getting to radio?

Screws behind the aux and pocket on either side of the brake controller an aux switches.

You're trying to get nav? Please do tell. I didn't get the option and regret it.

If you want factory nav, this is the only way that I know of.

No guys I have Nav. I used Crux box to do Nav in motion and also use the aux inputs in motion to watch video on the go, show gauge on display, etc. it's working great

Nice. If you don't mind, how much did the Crux Nav unlock cost?

Where did you get it and how hard is it to install?

Wasn't hard to install either. Pulled dash and radio,. Have to use toggle to provide 12v when needed. About 1-1/2 hour job.

There's probably no other way to have factory nav without the whole new radio is there? It's not that I really need it often, but it would be handy if it was just an upload addition.

As far as I know, you have to change out the brain to the radio and I posted the link to the company that offers that on the previous page, but it isn't cheap.
I've seen a company in Australia that has managed to hack in to the stock unit and add Garmin software, but I haven't seen anyone in the U.S. doing that.
