I've read that the older Alpine nav systems can be updated to 2003 and that discs are available on Ebay. I just bought an '03 and was looking to update mine but the system is no longer supported. Concentrate on getting your tunes fixed as the nav is practically useless for DVD's or anything else. Just my opinion. I wish mine didn't have it, looks like crap.

Here are a couple links, from my personal projects. May give you some inspiration.

One and Two

Go Tech! I'm guessing that when you were there you got a real degree!

That is really something, now burst my bubble and spill it, how much did it set you back in today's dollars?

I didn't add it all up since I bought the components separately and paid for install and the custom fabrication work in a span of several projects over 3 months. I would estimate $3k, maybe a bit more. The good news is I haven't spent a dime on the stereo since then...but I have been itching for the upgraded deck, so I can have a wired microphone...the vert doesn't promote a quite cabin for using the built-in mic at high speeds. It's just too low in the console.

Yikes! I think I'll upgrade the exhaust and listen to those tunes for awhile but your system really looks good and no doubt beats that lousy Alpin OEM stuff with a big stick. Dang! Now that I've seen it I want it.
