Hello all,
I have the 610, which only includes maps of the UK/Ireland. I am going to the Netherlands in a couple of weeks and want to add European mapping...

If I log into mygarmin there is lots of info about mapping updates - I assume this is to update maps you already own.

If I go to the buy maps section, everything appears to be dollar-priced and for USA Domestic only

What do I need to do to add the European maps to my nuvi?

(Apologies if this has been asked before, I have searched the forums but not found the answer).

If you go to http://www.garmin.co.uk there is a link that says "UK Price List" - it's an Excel spreadsheet.

Maybe something like part #010-10700-00 SD Card Benelux @ £59.99 ?
Or 010-10887-00 City Navigator Europe NT DVD @ £140.00

Question though I could easily be wrong Laughing

Would the v9 map upgrade work for this guy as I believe it adds the whole of Europe to a UK/Ireland v8 map set? This is way cheaper at around £43.

My nuvi already has v9 maps installed so I don't think I can upgrade.

I finally got through on the phone to support today, and they have said they will send me a v9 DVD. I presume I will install that and then buy an unlock code?

As for the UK price list - where would you actually buy the things on the list from - none of the 'stockists' I have spoken to have admitted to more than the basics.

Once you receive the DVD you can go back to the Garmin website and pay for the unlock; they'll send you the 25 digit code, which should then give you access to the maps you need for your unit.
