Nav/iPod Audio System Install?

I would love to install a Nav/iPod audio system into my Smart ForTwo '08. Has any one upgrade their system? I'd like to find someone who can do it but it's hard to know who does a good job. I noticed that "Car Audio Heaven" in Clairemont is listed on the smartclubsd.com web-site. Can anyone recommend these guys or someone else?

Also, I'm looking at installing a Kenwood DNX5120 ($599 at Crutchfield) and am curious how people like it versus DNX7120 or others.

Thanks for the help!

Marty

It's not too big of a task. I have Car Audio Heaven do my sound install (front components, amp, rear speakers, and subwoofer) and they did a great job. My AVIC D3 came with the car (dealer install), but they shouldnt have a problem with the install. I believe Jeff was the guy who did my install.

I have the

Kenwood - DNX8120

with 4 channel amp and a 81/2" sub.

Installed by North County Mobile Electronics (Mike 760-967-1100)

North County Mobile Electronics

I went with the USB interface rather than the Ipod interface.

My wife has the http://www.kenwoodusa.com/Car_Entert...gation/DNX6140 in her car.

NCME has done all of our cars over the last 10 years and have never had an issue.
