Clip Mounts for GPS, Cell, and MP3 Devices by rhduke00

Recently installed a ProClip mount for my Garmin GPS. The mount I installed consists of two pieces (a car mount and a device mount). The car mount is made specifically to fit into a vertical and horizontal gap on the dash of a 2006/2007. The device mount that I attached to the car mount is designed to hold any Garmin Nuvi or Street Pilot. It took me only two minutes to install.
 
ProClip made these mounting devices. In addition to GPS mounts they also make mounts to hold cell phone and mp3 players.

Do you like it? I used a GPS in a rental once and it took me the long way to the Indianapolis airport. I made (thought I followed directions) a wrong turn on the way. Man was I glad I made it there in time for my flight out. Thanks to the GPS though. :O
 
I'd made that trip a hundred times before in the past, albeit a different route, but thought I would follow directions. Never again on a familar route.

Radio remote on steering wheel by wanna_azzy

I just installed a new audio remote that allows changing stations and tracks on CDs. Not a hard job, but it takes time. Parts are from dreamka4u.com and cost $63. I think it was worth it. Installed on an '07 Limited Ultimate, pre-XM.

Hey Craig!.... I've had a Garmin C340 GPS for sometime now. I've notice that the GPS systems doesn't always know the "BEST" route, but it definitely will get you to you destination eventually. Also depends on how recent the maps are that are installed. Some options on mine that can affect the route are such as "quickiest" or "shortest" route. Also the option to eliminate toll roads or hwys etc.. After entering you destination, you also can return to the main menu and select detour and it will detour you with a different route. Hope this was helpful for you.

I'm gonna assume the head unit in your Sonata was a 6 CD changer?? This is because I've last read that this easy upgrade wasn't possible with the single CD head unit. I've also ordered the parts, but haven't bothered on the upgrade since I haven't heard any news that it's a definite possiblity for the single CD unit, which is what I have in my car.

I don't have a navigation system but have heard that Garmins, at least in the nuvi series, can be updated with the latest info through you computer. Good Luck.

That is true with the Garmin GPS. I've updated the software on mine 2 times since I've had it. You can also register it and they will email when there are updates available. Keep in mind, these are updates for the software, not the maps! That cost extra to update!

As pekelpd said Garmin map updates cost money. They sure do - $75.00 + sales tax if applicable. Anyone interested in map update information for their Garmin can find it here If you don't already have the most current version, I wouldn't order it now as they are due to come out with a new version soon

Tire pressure sensors by wanna_azzy

The 2007 Sonatas with XM radio also includes a tire pressure sensor system. Does anyone know if this system can be retrofitted to earlier Sonatas, and if so, how and at what cost?
