TAGGAR Posted February 19, 2005 Share Posted February 19, 2005 Hello all, I recently purchased a 1999 GS 300 with only 32, 000 miles and in cheery condition. I been very pleased with the car. My question is the nvigation system in hard drive based and is updated every 2 years. The DVD CD based navigation was introduced in 2000 ( I think). I was wondering if my hard drive system can be exchanged for a DVD based one. Thanks in advance for eveyones input. BT Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jbarhorst2 Posted February 19, 2005 Share Posted February 19, 2005 It would be a significant (pronounced "costly") endeavor to change from the hard drive system to the DVD system. Tom Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
