View Full Version : Were 03's equiped for the factory Nav?
I would like to know if the truck was equiped in 03 for Nav and are the Nav systems equiped to run with the bose system, do you require an external cd player with the nav system if so would it be a better set up to go ipod ???

No, the '03's never offered factory nav. They can be retrofitted. It?s my understanding that you need the nav disc to be running to operate the system, so you can't navigate AND listen to discs simultaneously without an add-on disc changer. Perhaps someone who has actually done this retrofit will reply. I have installed XM, which runs through the factory head unit quite nicely as an additional band and is supported by all of the factory controls/displays. I hope this helps. t~

Hi, Kenny! I'm doing a little better each day. My doc says he's amazed at my progress, but it's painfully slow for me & H2B. I hope you had fun at Katemcy and that H2Blondie and Lolo didn't harass you too much.:D Thanks for your inquiry. I appreciate it.
Be well,
