hey guys - since i have SO many questions prior to my potential purchase of another SSR =0) I'll be starting lots of little threads like this I'm sure.
Assuming I *dont* get an aftermarket stereo with Nav, i'm definitely going back to a Garmin system. Problem is, how to integrate its mounting such that it looks good in the truck.
In my old Murano, I had it in the center of the dash, just above the stereo, which looked fine because there was a lip across the dash top that I could hide the cord behind. When it's up there it's almost like a HUD too, with the builtin speed indicator always in view.
Where do you guys have yours, if you have them? I thought the middle of the dash again, but it'd be more awkward and have visible mountings if i did that in the SSR. I also thought about making a kind of shroud to extend back from the windshield to cover the unit, and at least make it look more integrated than just like a little TV glued to the dash. (think "reversed ramair scoop" as a cowling over the unit).
What say you?
