Suggestions?

I have a 2013 base sports package. Course, every time I get in the car, I plug the wire to the AUX, and my smart phone, get Google Maps and Pandora apps started and then stick the smart phone to a windshield holder.

What I am looking for is an inexpensive unit that I can put in which will have blue tooth or whatever so I can keep my phone on my belt, be able to navigate and more importantly get Pandora and hands free phone capability.

The sound quality is not important and I can manage with the current OEM speakers.

What are my options as far as inexpensive units out there. I mean unit and installation costs?

Apologize for the dumb question.

Usually cheap and navigation don't go together with HUs. Would you consider using your phone for navigation? It will be able to give voice commands through the Bluetooth connection.

The best cheap system I have ever used was Jensen, I personally never had a problem with their quality but the unit I had (2005) far exceeded the Alpine's flagship (2011) model that I now have and was half the price.
