Default 03 ls430 needs navigation...any suggestions?

I have a "pre-owned" 03 LS430. It has the standard factory radio but no nav. Can anyone suggest how to get a nav system into the thing? THX!

well he can always add an aftermarket Nav, which is not that much money now a days.

But yeah, adding the OEM system would be crazy $. Probably cheaper to switch to another car that came with it.
