So, here in the States... i went to Best Buy and they had a couple (of what i thought were double din) options... JVC, Kenwood etc.
The BB rep said the Kenwood is the best based on the Garmin Navi which is nice but it was like $800 US but he said they dont have the radio kit yet? is that the radio bracket? or the antenna kit everyone is talking about? Also, if i upgrade the headunit will i lose the Aux/USB port capability?? i like the fact that I can plug in my 16GB flash drive for all my mp3's but i want the capability of DVD playback, Navigation and touch screen and just an overall cosmetically pleasing unit. |

Laurie,
Did you get the latest maps with the Garmin attachment ECU? Can you check the map setup for it? I saw today that my 2010 Sonata Nav unit came with the 2010 Maps. It'd be great if the Garmin ECU can be had with the 2012-13 GCC maps. Perhaps upgraded if not?

Recommend you ask Yellowhat to ensure they get the unit from Kenwood with the latest maps.
