thanks sgbb....heard that might have complication on the control and GPS units...any one have done these swop

Heard that several leading brands like Alpine & Pioneer will have HUs with GPS that are compatiable to work with your steering controls.

However so far I heard only Kenwood works with Garmin Maps whereas the others work with Window CE based Aigis Map.

Chuan Sing, AutoSpritze, Swift Motion, New Generation & several other known installers should be able to give U better advice what are the options U have for your E240.
