what you have right now is business navigation ( technical word is : MASK ) , the professional navigation is what you are looking for ( Technical workd ; CCC ) ..

scrap yard is full of those ,, you need CCC - 8.8" screen - CCC fan wiring harness - Dashboard CCC trim ( you will loose the little open storage box in the middle of the dash ) - GPS antenna ( if your car doesn't have SAT NAV fitted )

you need a proper coding to make it work on your car and keep the current I-drive to use it on CCC ,

Finally you need Arabian Gulf Professional MAP DVD ,

Hope this info help , and stay away from ebay .. good luck
