    There is another way...

    I brought a HEMA HNI6 its a far better GPS than the Land Rover unit and it has free map updates.

    How much detail does the Hema provide? Using the iPad version of their software whilst having a drive around Watagan today, found there was really insufficient detail, only the major tracks; surprisingly the D4 map had more tracks than the Hema map, although NSW 1:25K topo had much more again.

    Your right these seem to be the bee knees off road maps
    I am just trying to bring my unit up to date with new road changes

    I have rarely used the Land Rover GPS for guidance. We have used to locate camp sites using the co-ordinates from the Camps 6 guide but now the HEMA has all the Camps 6 sites as well.

    I refuse to pay what Land Rover want for their maps. If Garmin & HEMA can provide free map updates on a $200 - $600 GPS Unit then Land Rover could do the same for their very expensive option.

    LR aren't alone in this regard. It's common amongst quite a few makes - and they all know how to get into you for the cost of updates.

    It's why I never even opted for the LR GPS in mine. Just went straight for the Hema.
