    Upgrading Factory Nav with POI's etc

    Hiya

    Ive just read through a really good post on Mini2 about upgrading the factory nav with POI's, speed cameras, perspective view and other features.... However the post was made in 2006 and a few of the links posted are no longer active!

    I was just wondering if anyone knows if this dvd would be what Im after

    BMW MINI Range Rover Sat Nav maps DVD 2009-2 HIGH on eBay (end time 02-Dec-09 15:52:23 GMT)

    It mentions the perspective views and POI's but doesnt mention speed camera's (which is the main reason I want to do this!!) although the photo he uses shows a speed camera on it!!

    Thoughts?

    You might be able to put speed cameras on using the download from Pocket GPS World:

    Pocket GPS World - SatNavs | GPS | Speed Cameras - Speed Camera Download

    Search for MINI on the page above, and it looks like it's possible, using the software from these guys:

    Just thought I would post these to show what the factory nav is capable of.... with a little tweakage

    So glad I did this now, now not only does the OEM nav look great, but it is functional too!!

    No, sorry I should have made it more clear.

    The eBay aution I linked to in the first post and the screenshots in my later post are nothing to do with the each other... I didnt even buy the eBay DVD so I cant comment as to what that would be like!

    I can send you details of the disk I am using to get the above shown features if you like.
