Including the map that you need.

OK, while you wait, what is the map that you need?

There is only 1 UK&ROI map in the current edition that you can use. UK&ROI 955.6801.

Thanks tendriver for the reply..i see there is 2 locations for maps ( all new maps 955 and 955 map collections only )

Do i just use a map from either of these threads.

Also is possible for me to update my navcore/bootloader and more importantly will it be worth it as i realise its an old tomtom.

Can i also use a western europe map..the 1gb ones that include uk and roi.

Sorry for all the questions and if thats the only map i can update to then thats ok as its a lot better than whats already on the unit.

Many thanks

1. Yes, they are the same maps. Posts 1 & 2 of "all new maps 955' & posts 2 & 3 of "955 map collections only" are Navitotal's posts. The rest are 3rd party.
2. Yes. Downunder has a mod version of navcore 9.510 that works quite well on a XL unit. Your bootloader is OK.
3. Maps are navcore specific, not device specific. Check the compatibility chart at the beginning of all Navitotal map threads. You can use ANY map that is compatibility with your navcore & that you have enuf storage for.
4. It's the only UK&ROI map that you can use with your current navcore.
