There are two OEM options as I have seen: one is where you replace the stock radio/cd-player with a 2DIN unit. And the second one is a little mobile unit that mounts on a little foot on top of the dashboard.

I was going to get that 2DIN unit for my car when I was ordering it back in october 2006, but back then it was not avaiable for the Norwegian marked...
But I later saw the spec on it and are happy that I did not got it.
It can not play DVD-movies. It can playback MP3 from a CD but has some restrictions here too. The display is a little too small for my liking. And no Bluetooth or handsfree options. And it is expencive too.

I have now a Pioneer AVIC-HD3BT or AVIC-Z2 as it is called in the US. It has a 7" screen, harddrive for music and maps, Bluetooth, voice recognition and commands, voice guiding in navigation mode, 3D map, replacable background images for the menues.... and a lot more.


The later mobile unit seems better out of the two models from Honda, but you should get a Garmin Nuvi instead, that is a much better option.
