TrustiGO Sat Nav

Has anyone tried the TrustiGo SAT NAV system? It looks pretty awesome for $600.

The advertisement looks good. No mention about the navigation function which is what I'd be most interested to replace my top-of-dash unit.

This is the same seller but this unit is for mazdas. This thread on a mazda forum seems to say good things about it. This looks like a great setup.

The biggest thing that worrys me with this is whether it will integrate with the rear DVD system. There are integrations with the rear DVD for Single Play/Dual Play, etc in the OEM system.

Looks pretty sweet. That might just be the thing to put in my daughter's 07 F-150.

I ordered the double din version for my commuter Hyundai Sonata. I will let you know how it goes as Im sure the install on the ford will be even easier since you get all of the harnesses, etc with the ford specific one.

I don't see what the warranty is on one of these. I also don't read too many good reviews. Good luck.

I have found some info about the install of this unit. It appears it is easy but you have to make sure its connected to ACC power and not cont power.
I also ordered one of these and I'll let you know how it goes.
It may work with ford sat radio if you have it installed already, but I have not been able to confirm this with anyone yet.
Also I ordered the night vision backup cam after I checked out my neighbors truck and it is great (installed on rear license plat). He ordered from trustigo and had no problems for this item.
I too am a little worried about this ebay seller, but I'll just have to take my chances. I'm a little curious about a warranty. I sent trustigo a message and they explained that if the unit is defected, they will replace it.... That's it.... They do not seem to give you a direct answer to your questions...
Anyway, please let me know if you have any issues as well.
I hope works as good as they show and say it is. If so, then these may be a big hit!! I may also get a front cam since this unit has additional inputs (then maybe I can get my wife to try and park it.... maybe not...)

I'm curious about the location of the GPS antenna (and the complete install).

He was pretty good answering my questions but I think there must be a language barrier. After I ordered he was very proactive and even offered to load a custom logo into the Double Din unit I bought. He emailed me with a couple install tips and let me know when he shipped. The product is enroute and we will see from how it goes from here.

Do you have the Rear DVD entertainment system? I would be interested if this works with that. Also if you have Sirius, whether that will work.
