Kaleb, Thats an Alpine system... I think there might be a Navi module you can put into it from the back. I'm not very familiar with them. Check eBay. Jaime On Sat, Mar 2, 2013 at 3:05 PM, Kaleb C. Striplin wrote: > It's got the cassette back there but it appears there is an optional cd > rea

IIRC, you can push a button on the dash unit and the screen swings down, exposing the CD reader for the nav unit (or was that a cassette deck behind the screen?) On Sat, Mar 2, 2013 at 10:24 AM, Kaleb C. Striplin wrote: > Along the same lines, what do you have to so to add GPS to a 2001 ml? Mine

Along the same lines, what do you have to so to add GPS to a 2001 ml? Mine already has the head unit with the nav button, but it needs a reader and the map disks I guess. It also seems like you have to pull the unit out and install the cd reader in the dash unit? Sent from my iPhone On Mar 2,

Hi Bob, The system for your car is now about 10 years old, so consider this when comparing it to a modern Garmin. The Garmin will have more features and probably a nicer user interface. I'm sure everyone else on the list will give you dozens of reasons why you should just use a Garmin, but let me
