Tom is right. The dash is very different for HCH's with Navi. It would be do able to make the swap but probably more expensive than buying the car with Navi in the first place.

As far as buying the same system from Circuit City for $500 is highly unlikely. Most Navi systems from the factory are far superior to aftermarket systems. However, there are a few out on the market that are up to par or are even better than the factory system but will cost much more than $500. A friend of mine has a tomtom and loves it. I looked at it and it seems to be a good system. Also, Alpine and Pioneer make a great head-unit replacement navi system that can play DVD's as well. These systems are about $1500 though.
