Navigation stereo work in a non Nav car?

Will an OEM BMW stereo made for a car with navigation work in a car without the navigation installed?

Maybe.. if you added the nav display (there's no display at all on the head unit itself on the one made for nav) and coded the car to support it. Probably not worth the effort.

Yeah that's what I needed to know Kevin. I don't have navigation in my car and don't plan to install it. I'll keep looking for another unit.

Thanks

It'll work without the nav, but you'll need the screen.

They turn up on Ebay fairly frequently. If the ability to play MP3's matters to you, find one from 2005+ - that's when MP3 support was added to the CD player.
