I've been looking into installing a Pionner Nav unit that has MSN traffic feature. I really like this car and there is nothing wrong with this car. I have a new car itch right now. I have been thinking either the Genesis, G8, or FX 35. But I have a perfectly good car.
 
That Korean import unit doesn't do the gps nav. So, it's no better since it offers no enhanced functionality, thus no substance. oh. and the G8 doesn't have gps nav either. Isn't that stupid, too.
 
I think a gps nav unit with the mp3/wmv like capabilities with usb and/or compact/sd/xd flash drive compatible unit would be really cool.

I feel you, my car is perfectly fine as well, but the Genesis is calling me!!! LOL
 
You're absolutely right, the unit that Korean Auto sells is really only good for having a screen in your dash to either watch movies/tv or have a back-up camera. GPS isn't an option, so to be quite honest...it's a total waste of money.
 
Yes...that is why I'm upgrading to the new Pioneer unit I came across. Take a look and you might see why I like it so much. I don't need a nav unit as I have a phone with built in nav feature that works GREAT!
 
Pioneer AVH-P4100DVD
 
When I did my initial install, units with USB connectivity weren't available. However, it is able to play CD's loaded with mp3, wma or aac files. Not to mention, the sound output of an aftermarket unit is much better than what you'll get with the OEM unit.

I was thinking more along lines of

Some of these units have MSN traffic info service. You can pay $129 for the life time service (for this particular unit). You get the MSN info thing like those watches that they sell. This is far better than the XM traffic where you have to pay $10+ to get this service. However, I never came across how MSN traffic things works. I am just speculating that it works like way it should or like the Sync/Microsoft Automotive 3.0+.
 
These cost bit more than the AVH-P4100DVD. However, a Navigation Option is something. So, if you add $200 to AVH-P4100DVD, then you get the AVIC-F700BT op AVIC-F900BT. The product descriptions say that a person can use voice command to control the system. That's also worth something, if it works like way it should (Microsoft Sync).
 
If you have a SD card or usb flash drive option, CD aren't really necessarily. CD holds 700MB +. If you have 6 discs, that's 4.2GB +. That's less than 8 or 16 GB SD you can buy for $30. Also, you don't have to burn the CDs all the time. I actually find the CDs annoying now. I think if this function works way it was intended, it would be a great functionality.

All of them are fine units, it really just boils down to what gives you what you want and need in a unit. Personally, I have no need for the MSN traffic feature, so it would be a wasted cost for me.
 
Considering I enjoy listening to my music loud (when situations permit), voice command does nothing for me either. I've got a hand and a remote that will do everything I need done.
 
Now you're getting there. The main reason I like the P4100DVD is that it offers options. I can plug thumb drives into it and play music off of them. I agree, I'm getting tired of burning CD's too. Thumb drives and SD cards are so much better!!! I can hook an iPod directly to it and control everything from the screen. Honestly, you wouldn't listen to 4.2GB of music at one time, unless you were driving across the nation. I've burned an MP3 cd and played it from DC to Orlando, FL and didn't start hearing songs repeat until we got into FL...on a single disc. Like I said before, I don't miss being able to load 6 cd's at one time.

MSN Traffic uses info sent by your local FM stations. MSN, using FM radio stations, send out information on a seperate data channel which MSN Traffic receiver can decrypt. So, you need to be within a local participating FM radio station's reach to get this data.
 
While we need to pay for this info here in US, In Europe, this information is actually free! (But then again, they're socialists! ))))

Hyundai Rear Speaker Cover by SilverBullet00

Did any year Azera come with a in the trunk rear speaker cover like the the Genesis has?. It would help prevent damage to the speakers and probably improve sound quality.

Not sure what you mean, but the 2006 Azera has a fully carpet-lined trunk, including all up under the rear deck...

My 2008 LTD did not come with a under the package tray cover that would cover the speakers, now I will look around the dealers lot and see if I'm a loner. Thanks for the quick reply.

So I posted a while back that I got the AVN52D for Christmas. I installed it soon after but finally took a pic to post up here after I saw the recent talk about the nav not looking right. All feedback from friends that have been in my car has been positive. I am happy with the looks, and it definitely ups the quality of sound. Surely going to get some new door speakers to handle the extra power. Still have to wire the steering wheel controls adapter, wireless bluetooth and IPOD adapter. I just haven't figured out where all that stuff is going to fit behind the dash.

Congrats!!! That unit looks SWEET!!! I can't wait to upgrade mine now!!!
 
You will definitely benefit from upgrading your speakers as well. Are you planning on doing it yourself? It's really pretty easy. I've created a couple guides that can assist you with the speaker replacement.
