Haha, I had no idea my head unit would attract so much attention! Yes, it is an aftermarket navigation unit. It's an Eclipse AVN6600. I don't have any daytime pics yet, I'm still working on a custom faceplate for it... So far I'm in love with it - it runs the same software as the OEM 2IS Lexus Navigation, and has some really nice features!

Haha, sorry to disappoint - it's vinyl!

BTW,,we need to see more pics on your new nav set up
Thanks Kenny - you'll see more pics when I finish the faceplate, I promise...

LOL - you guys are funny! My car is nothing special - there are so many here sooooooooo much nicer than mine. Thanks for the compliments though!

Ouch - $500! I still can't believe I've had that vinyl on my car for over a year now and it still shines glossy like new!

Most of those photographs I took were between 15 and 20 second exposures.

Thanks for the comments everyone!
