08 Nav install question
I have an 08 3LT car with no Nav. Looking to install factory Nav unit. I understand its a plug and play. Does it matter if the unit is from an 05,06,07? Does the unit I install in my 08 need to be an 08 unit. Is there any differences in the 08 unit over older units other than the updated disc's?
Also does the 08 Nav have the I Pod hook up like the 6 Disc changer does?
Any help would be great.

I have that Unit. Awesome for the price. Only drawback is you can only put one cd/dvd, hence the price but it works for me. I have to leave work in a few minutes but I will try to post a pic, looks way better than factory. Meanwhile here's a recent reference to the POS factory nav:

You are correct. When I'm done with this car the Factory Nav. unit is a factory option and will not hurt resale. An aftermarket Nav will in a lot of peoples eyes, but again I'm sure you have a smart *** comment on that to. I want what I want, period. 
Now if you have nothing helpful to say............
