Yes, just like anything in eBay - sometimes someone is selling theirs and sometimes no one is selling.

Its all timing. Just keep checking and I will check for you once in a while too.

I'm doing mine this weekend. Any pictures or tip you can share would be greatly appreciated. Did you get Nav DVD's with yours? I did not and am assuming they have been loaded already in the CIC.

Thanks. (The picture of your glovebox USB mount would be most appreciated)
