Just wondering if anyone has installed/replaced the stock radio with a GPS/DVD in their C-5 and which brand they used. I want to keep a clean neat look, but would love a GPS.

Yes, it took a bit of time to re-do the dash like that, but no more time and effort then the rest of these guys put into theirs. The thing that really eats up the time is all the fabbing with epoxy/bondo or whatever, the lots of sanding, and the painting. It's not terribly hard to do, it just takes time to get it right.

No need to be intimidated. just take your time.
