Do you have to plug in a extra lead into the power lead and put it on the windscreen to get a signal for the traffic data? Thanks Graham

Thanks sussamb for quick reply. I think I will send for one, I did not want wires all over the place.

Beware, I bought a 'traffic compatible' one from eBay. It wasn't and I got a refund from the seller. I bought one from Garmin in the end that did work.

I don't think he's bought the satnav yet. I suspect he had an older one that had the small wire antenna that you needed to connect and fix to the windscreen with a couple of suckers.

He's just checking that is no longer how it's done before he buys the 2699LMT-D Wink

Got a nuvi2699LMT-D is it best to leave it as it is or put the latest updates on it. Question

Well that depends ....

But before you do anything make a full back up of all the folders and files, including the hidden .system folder Wink
