^^ I had the same issues and just ended up deleting the CO.fbl. Its beena bout a week now with it and after deleting some of the POI's this thing works and looks great. It was pretty easy to install as well.

has anyone figured out how to upgrade the Plenio OS to version 1.64? It looks like the company site that used to host the upgrade nk.bin file is no more..

Just realized that mine has version 1.62, and I'd like to try out 1.64 if I could find it!

ok, I found a copy of 1.64, but also am working on getting a custom ROM that will allow access to the Windows CE desktop!

Yea major cutting and bondo work will be required. Also there is not enough backspacing so the HU might stick out a bit and therefor will no close...i do want to give it a try if i had a DD HU

The Magellan 1700 is a 7" unit that would fit:

A little more expensive at just under $200, but it's another option. I'm putting this unit in my base 2008, I just received the navigation dash piece to replace the cubby dash.

But $200 is pricey. Might as well put in $100 more and get a double din? I wish we could still get in on the $80 one.

Is it possible to replace just the cubby? I have an 05 and the lid stays open which wouldn't look very good. I would like to replace my cubby with an 03 cubby so that it looks clean.

Yes its possible, but it may be a lighter shade of gray, but Im not sure exactly when the center console color was changed.

bobos350: you can download OCN8 from the first page of this thread.

Update: On my experience

So all n' all I like it, I've had this plenio installed for about 6 months. At first I did have some trouble with the installation, and I did have to delete the CO.fbl file because there was an error. Or it could have been the Error: map usa_colorado.fbl, not really sure which one of the two because it has been a while. I also did delete most of the POI (Places of Interest) so now it does start up quicker. I did encounter an error that happens off n' on, It happens when you try to enter the name of a new city, I got it to work sometimes but often times I just hit the recent button and select my city from there. If there is a solution to this problem please let me now.

I have also have a second plenio for sale if you are located by San Diego but it is missing the gps antenna, however there have been post here that confirm an aftermarket antenna will also work.
