    After Market NAV Stereo systems

    Hey Folks
    My wife and I bought a 2006 Toyota Tundra double cab. Its got a factory NAV system with AM/FM CD player and a factory DVD player. The NAV system is stupid. You can't enter anything into it if your moving and you have to "agree" to a EULA every time you start the vehicle. I'm wondering if any one has replaced these units before with an after market system. Ideally we'd want it to support the DVD player, Also be a nav system, support bluetooth phones and to have a iphone support (i.e an actual iphone cable that audio goes over, charges the iphone and allows us to controll the iphone via the nav screen.

    Any advice you guys have I'd love to hear.

    Thanks

      Nothing new. By now all vehicles in the US with factory Nav should be like that. Back in my car audio days around 2000 or 2001, My Cadillac have a Pioneer Indash DVD and Nav 7 inch LCD. The brains of the unit was under the back seat. Well anyway back then, you had to be in "park" and if you had manual, you had to set the parking brake. The way I used to by pass this was connecting the "parking brake" wire to ground to get my indash DVD and Nav to work while I drive. I used to do this to all the friends that bought a indash DVD when they ask for help. I know the newer models are a little more complicated. *cough firmware cough* Others require button sequence to bypass the feature.

      Its just a saftey feature. One would think someone sitting on the passanger seat should dissable that feature.

      You'll have to vist one of those Toyota Tundra forums for the factory nav.

        There must be some good after-market systems, but I have no experience with them. You probably already know about these, but here's a link to simple connectors that reduce NAV irritation.

          Yeah I looked at the lockpicks dongles already and I might go that route. Or I could just snip the speed wire which is similar to the P brake ground deal.
