Nice. I'm trying to keep mine stock. Hopefully I locate a us navi system later down the road.
Anything else special about the sport design model? My buddies car is still available to me for parts. Brakes and bigger?

You would be much better off with an aftermarket system. You would need a complete wire harness for the oem nav system and the navidation itself is pretty much dated seeing as the last year it was produced was 2005. If you really want an oem nav you can hit up member exclusive. He has a complete system for sale but I'm mot sure if the wire harness is included. Everything else about the sport design is prety much the same. If you could salvage his headlights that would be nice since he has/had the black housing headlights.

unless u get the wiring harness which runs from the trunk to the underdash then dont bother even then dont bother as its outdated and not worth the time/extra cash you will need to install it
