Default Update On PAL!

Hello All,

Just a little note to let you know things are moving forward with the PAL. I don't have any pricing or availability yet, but it is going to become a reality. Things are just starting to get setup in the system.

Here is what I do know....

It is listed for 2008 and 2009 only... allows conn of iPod, command & control to factory navigation radios only. This works with factory navigition only. Install time is 1.5 hours.

Don't know why it doesn't work with 2007 and earlier yet, especially since the earlier years use the 2008 navigation unit.

I will keep you updated.

Thanks, Gene.

I'd also be interested to hear more about the '07 comatability issue. I would like to upgrade my '07 NAV system if there's a chance it would work.
