No. I do have the stock nav unit, where is the gps antenna for that?

However like I said I only get the false laser alert if I have the detector plugged in when I start the car. (it happens anywhere, so the problem is in the car). If I plug it in after that it's fine. And it doesn't always happen either, just to make things a little stranger. And it's happened with two different detectors in my car, so it's very unlikely to be a problem with the detector.
