hey guys,

so I've got a 2014 scion frs for a while now. originally bought it 0 miles stock, base model because.. mod.. lol never thought I'd need some of the stuff. I kind of regret not just buying a monogram version.

OKAY, so that's the story.
NOW, as the title, is there a head unit with stand alone navigation (excluding oem) that will fit our cars perfectly? I've been looking over the forum and there are quite a few that looks very exceptional but they all seem to need their own Internet to run apps like waze along with other stuff. my phone has data plan and navigain but sometime I'd lose GPS and it would lose my currently position as I drive. might be weak signal here and there because of the phone, so I alway have to pull over and wait or ask for direction. with that said pointless to tether my Internet to the head unit.

if anyone can shine some light on this, maybe a LINK to a good looking head unit like the android, joying etc but have stand alone navigation, that would be awesome

RECOMMENDATIONS?

thanks in advance
