The procedure is always the same and explained many times in several threads.
Download your map, add it to your device, use FastActivate Premium and press the first three buttons ;)

Sorry, I can't find the maps :(
Isn't there a link to detailed instructions ?
Are the maps even suitable for standalone TomTom devices ?

Please do yourself a favour and check our forum structure!
We have a good help and tutorial section as well as sections for maps, voices and everything else.
The latest maps can also be found in the sticky threads in the general section.
All you have to do is to read the instructions provided ;)

Oh dear sorry must be dim. I've tried my best I downloaded an instaled the pack activated it, but when I turn the TomTom on it says no map found, :( any more clues

Try to patch the Navcore as well - see post #3 ;)

OK it all works now thanks. I was wondering is it possible to upgrade past Navicore 7, using some clever method. Also it would be great if I could get the postcodes to work as that option wasn't included in the TomTom Go when I bought it, (there isn't an option to search for postcodes in the menus)

Thanks for your help. I've used search forums but it doesn't seem to come up with anything.

You can install basically any NC you like, some have some drawbacks though.
Since it is a very limited device you might not be able to use things like Loquendo voices.
A good start would be the 9.205 or the 9.405 but make a full backup of the working device using Windows Explorer first ;)

OK thanks I've updated the maps on a couple of devices but the postcode doesn't work properly. I can only enter the first half of the postcode like w11 ?
I installed map 860.3868 do I have to install a different map to get postcodes ?

Fri Mar 23, 2012 9:00 pm

OK the postcodes are here http://www.navitotal.com/showthread.php?7794-All-Maps-880.XXXX found them duh !

There is no cost!!
Put a copy of your XL's ttgo.bif on a SD card.
Navcore. Go here: TomTom Automatic Navcore Installation Read the instructions carefully. Select Navcore 9.205. Per the instructions, copy it to your card.
Map. Go here: 885 maps with installer and FastActivate Read the instructions carefully. Select United States 2GB 885.4088. Per the instructions, copy it to your card.
