Well, my Garmin was recently stolen and I've been looking to replace the Wal-Mart Head that the PO had installed so I took it as a sign to go with a built-in navi. The rear-view camera option was also a big push. However, I think I'm just going to go with the Nuvi 3490LM and buy the head unit that came from factory. Low-Pro style.

Well, when I started the modding process, I had no clear vision of where I wanted to go with it. Most notably, I slapped on a bull bar with Hella's and bought the LED:Halo Gen 3's. These were all poor choices as now, half a year or so later, I want the CCFL:Halo's and despise purchasing the light bar. If I ever wanted to take the Jeep offroad, it would lessen my approach angle, and I live in Suburbia so the Hella's don't get used at all.
No big deal, I just wish I had put the money towards mods that I would enjoy more.

Since we're on the topic of taking the headlights apart, do you know if it would it be possible to take a OEM headlight lens and put it on the Gen 3's? I love the studded/ribbed design over the running lights.

Sorry for any confusion, the college ran my brain dry today and I'm having a hard time articulating my thoughts currently :lol:
I decided not to change it, I think I'm just going to go with brighter switchback led's. I just have to examine every option lol.

For the money youre going to spend on that head unit, you could get a setup similar to mine : Jensen VM9312HD flip out dvd player, I got on ebay a year and a half ago new from vminnovations for 250 bucks. it has alot of accessories you can add to it ie: $200 navigation module, back up camera input, j link ipod cable(charges newer ipods as well), a remote input adapter(for ipod link, audio video input/output, and aux 3.5mm jack). most of this stuff has been reduced in price since i bought it, and so far its held up great and the picture quality for movies n such is amazing, the wire harness, antennae adapter and dash kit on ran me 75 or so, but the problem is cramming it all in the dash.
