Hi rustynutz,I am also looking at replacing an older GPS. Please let us know:-Are directions given in Aussie accent?-How quick is it at recalculating trips after a wrong turn?-Does the windscreen attachment have a long enough arm to cope with the i30 sloping windscreen? Long enough to sit low on the dash rather than 1/3 way up the windscreen.ThanksDruggist
Yes, a handy feature! I did wonder whether I should've paid the extra $30 and got the camera too but wasn't that keen on running the wiring through to the dash. If this GPS ends up being a good thing, maybe I'll get a wireless camera down the track?
the only issue i can see with your gps unit Rusty is that the AV in is 2.5mm whereas video cables that come with cameras are RCA. is your car a hatch or a CW? i've offered a freebie in the For Sale / Wanted section ...

If this GPS ends up being a good thing, maybe I'll get a wireless camera down the track? i suggest not to go for a wireless camera. i had one with my gps & the video signal was not very good ... a fair bit of static. i had to re-install a hard wired camera which gives a clearer signal. it's not that difficult running the wires from the back of the car to the dash. a bit time consuming but it's possible. if you go thru the search engine of this forum someone has done it (with pics posted as well). the only issue i can see with your gps unit Rusty is that the AV in is 2.5mm whereas video cables that come with cameras are RCA. is your car a hatch or a CW? i've offered a freebie in the For Sale / Wanted section ...
