Add GPS Navigation to Your Honda Accord

A GPS navigation system can add a tremendous amount of convenience to your car. Turn-by-turn directions and GPS positioning ensure that you will never be lost, even when driving in unfamiliar territory. Installing these systems can be very expensive, but doing it yourself can help to reduce the costs, as long as you feel comfortable with wiring and stereo installations.

2. Unscrew the screws on the both sides of your center console cover. Then remove the center console cover from the car.
