Okay no problem. You may want to check that out, because I didn't think any of them had chrome until the 2009/2010 which are a different interface.

My truck was a completely loaded Lariet and I haven't ever seen any with the chrome trim until the new models came out.

Thanks for pointing that out. My truck is also Lariat and I figured the factory Navigation would have had chrome *****. Does your A/C controls have chrome surround? I see a nav unit on ebay from a 2008 that has the chrome surround on the *****, but I think it's going to need programming to get it run right.

The only **** on the Nav is the volume control.

My A/C controls are all digital and push button, however the A/C vents had the the Chrome Surround

They aren't exactly *****, but this picture may better illustrate my question. Note the chrome surround on the temperature and fan controls. I assume you don't have those. The Nav units with the chrome are similar in that the **** has the chrome and the load/unload control has the chrome surround as well.

Thats what I wanted too, I need it to match my chrome ac buttons. Ebay has some time to time, a few of them recently sold for $570 and $580. I was dead set on factory replacement, but after reviewing some of the aftermarket systems that I found online they have more features and less install hassle than the factory nav units. But If I can get one dirt cheap, why not. I don't think

I couldn't pay around $500 or up on a factory nav unit while I can get a better 7" flat touch screen for a few hundred dollars more. The newer aftermarket units are looking more and more like oem units. More of a natural fit to the f150.

Thanks for the insightful comments , however I would appreciate keeping them out of my thread if you aren't interested in purchasing... I was simply trying to help Windsor out with the questions he asked, and don't remember asking you what you would or wouldn't pay.

I am not trying to rape anyone on the price, if someone want to offer a fair price for just the Nav unit it is theirs. I only see one unit that sold on Ebay for under $600 without the DVD... I checked, and someone got a very good deal.

I may be intrested in this. I am in the market for a navigation
unit and would like to go oem if I could get the right deal.
Serious buyer. Cash in hand.
But $775 is out of the question especially without the wiring harness or antennas .
Pm me your best price shipped and see if we can work something out.

Hey, Im no longer intrested. sorry
After looking into prices for the wiring harness and antennas I think id be better off
getting a brand new aftermarket system and atleast then Id have a warranty.
I would have liked to get oem but I just think this is too much for an incomplete kit.
