Is it possible to install a navigation system on a 2004 Acura TL?

Filed Under acura

Mr. Diddy asked:


Can a navigation system be installed on a 2004 Acura TL? I know some do have navigation, but could one be installed in a non-navi TL? Are there better navi systems than Acura’s factory system? Thanks.
I don’t want a navigation system to put on the dash of my car, I want it where the radio is.

      A navagation system can be installed on any car. It all has to do with finding the correct audio/video shop that can do it right. Because it will involve ALOT of special interfaces and adapters for the factory wiring…etc.

      There are kit’s to install a non-factory nav in your Acura TL. If you want to avoid the hassle, just get a Garmin or TomTom, easy to install, both very good nav systems

      Its best just to buy the car with it. Its only $2,000 more for the car if you buy one with it, instead of spending thousands more with an installation.

      The factory navi system made for Acura is an Alpine. You radio is Bose. Acura should be happy to install an updated version into your 2004.

      Alpine also makes a radio/navi system which will replace the Bose. An Alpine dealer can install it.

      Both require a DVD player installed in the trunk.

      here is the thing, you cannot install a factory nav system in the TL because it comes with all different functrions. You would have to wire it to the steering column for voice activation and rewire all other sorts of things like the radio ect because it controls all these items. There are excellent nav systems out there but not like the one in the acura. This is by far one of the easiest to use system from any car manufacturer and is used in many ways not just to find a route. And for the person who said the stereo is bose you are wrong. Navi is alpine but stereo is not bose
