Well after having everything red in the car i decided that white and black would go better, So the old centre console came out to be re done.
Ive also made it so the tom tom can be put into it

Let me know what you think

And i also done the door cappings.

Very nice mate, did you make the door cappings also?

[johnbest981]

Absolutely love that Sat-Nav holder!

[maggies_minder]

i like hat youve done and what your thinking.

but... i thought the reason sat navs were screen mounted was so you can glance at it and still see the road, with that wont you have to take your eyes completely off the road?

it does, but its still benefical to get confirmation from the screen directions. It looks good, but does leave the nav a bit low for my likeing!

I was thinking of a sat nav holder too, but decided against it because of it being mounted too low. My console is nearly done (i made a build thread about it and never bothered to update ) , i'm just going to add a cigarette lighter and an ipod holder

exactly what elmo said is what i was insinuating, they do talk to you but if your in an area you've never been to (the reason you would use a sat nav in the first place) going on what the sat nav says isnt always ideal as sometimes the spoken directions can be too late, hence why being able to glance at it for visual confirmation is handy.

I have my sat nav muted, I find it less distracting if i just glance at it.

[asmith88]

I like it, doing the same thing with mine, when i get round to it! to be honest mines getting mounted there because it looks fancy, style over substance me!

[Darkscamp]

after years of listening to directions from a woman next to me, there was no chance i was going to have the satnav replacement telling me wrong aswell so i muted her

It's safer down there out of your vision if it was to obscure your vision it's dangerous and illegal.

looks good!

[aaron876]

to be honest you should never glance at the sat nav, taking ur eyes of the road for a split secound could cause an accident, i just have it on the loadest setting and if needed ill pull over and veiw the map.

I used it today to go to Minispeed and was ok.

I love the way it looks aswell.

Polished it all up today aswell so its all shiny lol

Going to do the parcell shelf tomorrow.

behave, glancing at the sat nav is no worse than checking your mirrors, speed, temperature, oil pressure, looking down to turn the heater on.

I second this.
