XM''s not a big deal, I don''t have it now and I won''t die if I don''t get it with the new setup.

The traffic feature will tell you trouble spots and redirect you around them - that''s the way I read it. I don''t have it yet, but will soon.

What do you have to do to add that feature?

Purchase either Garmin GTM 10 or GTM 12. There is a nominal fee of $60/year for the service itself.
You would be better off buying them off of Ebay as opposed to Garmin
Here are a few links about it:

Okay I think I see what you''re saying. I suppose that would be a convenient feature as well. For now I''m just hoping it''s not an outrageous install price.

I hear its cheaper if you have an 00, but I have an 03 so I think it''s more expensive.

I''m trying to see what the damage is

Only Kenwood has a contract with Garmin Navigation, no other stereo brand. Each one has there own navigation company.

Hope this helps!

Between my boy and I got my Pioneer Avic-Z2 installed. I bought the harness from crutchfield.com. Not that bad. Now I need a custom stereo kit because there is some gaps not that big of a deal. Anybody knows of a place. I''ll post pics soon.

It helps some, but there is no comment on price or if it was installed by yourself. I''m looking to get it installed on an 03 S Type if anyone else has had it installed on that vehicle.
