Any part number for the harness?
I've been looking all over for it for the longest time.

Can you record with that camera? I would love to have a chase cam record a few minutes of a lapping session.

offthecha1n- Did the orbital not match the dash well when it came? I was wondering what kind of paint (like the plastic specific stuff) and if your finish was more shiny / flat / etc than the original.

I'm watching this thread pretty close since I'm choosing between these units myself. I'm leaning towards the kenwood just for the garmin based nav. Anyone that's used the newer Nuvi's is this a similar system? I love the Nuvi I bought for my dad this christmas and this way I wouldn't have to borrow his back on trips : ) lol

I've decided to wrap my Orbital kit in high gloss 2x2 CF. It's going to be exactly what Rexpeed has in their dash trims... It's going to take me some time, but I'll let you know how it comes out, the black crap job from the Orbital is just that "crap".

no it didnt match too well, as you see your car every day it would look off to you, maybe for passangers though it would not look bad. as I had paid so much for it i wanted it to look as good as I could make it. it was pretty easy, just make sure you sand it well
