Hi, on the POI download page, there are many car dealership options, however I need the UK Honda sites, does anyone know how to submit these lists or can compile a list for inclusion on my TTG.
And NO...I'm not even going to try Laughing Out Loud

Cheers for any help

..and heres their reply...

Thank you for your enquiry to Honda UK. Unfortunately we do not have the
dealers listed in the format you have requested. There is a facility in the
website honda.co.uk for a dealer search which might allow you to extract the
information you have requested.

Regards

Hi, just like to let anybody know who does these things, that I am religously keeping an eye out HERE for a national HONDA dealership.
Please make my day...
Thanks Dazp

Hi Dazp,

There are a number of us who write POIs. The main reason POIs are written is that the authors have a desire for the POI themselves, as there are no POIs that meet their requirements they write them for their own use, and then publish them here.

Have a read of this thread. It is not difficult, although it can be time consuming. Why not think about writing your own Honda POI and then get it published here. Thumbs Up

Regards,

http://poiplace.oabsoftware.nl (free to register) lists a Honda ov2 file for the UK. Haven't checked how complete it is though, but take a look it might be a starting point

Thanks for the reply, this all sounds very simple to certain people, but did you see how long it took me to install previous info on TTG Laughing Out Loud this will take me DAYS :x and much frustration..hopefully someone someday will take an hour out of their morning and do this. I'll just mess up I know I will!! :x

I have submitted a POI to be reviewed, so hopefully it should be ready to download shortly. On a downside the bmp is not to such a high resolution as shown on your last post, (with a 22 x 22 pixel limit) but I hope it will do!

Hi..er, does some one have to 'walk' the British Isles and physically check all these POI's for accuracy in the 'review'...its been ages and still not in the poi list...most garages will have changed franchises by the time this gets loaded...!! Confused Wink

I currently have an extremely large backlog of POI's to go through. They'll get added as soon as I find time to go through all of them and add them to the site.
