This idea has poped in to my head but will it still power up and down like the OEM unit? will be nice to see.

Are you all midgets?!!
I can't reach the screen to use as a touchscreen from my normal seating position, but then I am not a dwarf










Quite interested in in though.

My Garmin nuvi 3790 has voice control, which would alleviate the reach problem, but I think the 5" screen is a bit on the small side for it's position. Anybody know the dimensions of the factory fitted Garmins.

I did a test drive of a Virage when it first came out and would say that the screen sizes are no different from the old Volvo unit. Stand to be corrected though.

[brakedwell]

Which is considerably bigger the the widest portable Garmin.

Surely holding alcohol that close to a scotsmans mouth is a bit like inviting a tiger to eat steak off your hand.....
In ne'er a blink o' the eye ye'll ave been glasgee-kissed in the tessies, yer pint dooned and the glass embedded somewhere ye ne wanted it.

Not stereotyping or anything

He is in New Zealand - they probably put it in upside down
