Oh well, that is unfortunate. I was hoping that it would just be plug and pray. But, that would be way too easy.
I guess it doesn't matter anyway. I plan on moving out of this country when I graduate from college (2 years to go) and I wouldn't have any money to "invest" into my car until then anyway seeing as I just spent a good amount of money buying it.
I'd have to look for the navi CDs for Australia.

I am poor beyond belief right now, just wondering for the future.

I have a pretty good sense of direction, I don't really need it. Just one of those things it would be fun to have and use now and again. I don't like having extra stuff mounted in my car.... It's bad, I take my radar detector down everytime I turn it off.
I would rather have it in my dash all OEM, or not at all. I am a weirdo.
I guess it was more a hypothetical question / thinking aloud via the keyboard.

I didn't think I needed a nav system until I got a good deal on the only 6spd max that I could find and it had the factory navigation. You can always find your destination without it. It's just quicker and more direct with it.
Thanks for the FTP site and storage.

Yay. 2 uploaded. FSM uploaded.
Guys, check your PMs to get access to upload. Once the files are there, we'll let the DLing begin!
Everyone, we still need several regions. If you can help, please post here.
Thanks!

We can use it on the upload site. I'll PM you with the info.

MCA 1

MCA 3

MCA 5
MCA 8
Please let me know if interested. We've had a lot of response but not a lot of action.
If there is enough interest, we may have to do a group buy / buy all of the regions at once on all the newest software and spread the cost out over everyone involved. Let me know if you're interested in doing that!
It may not be free but it will save money if you're trying to get all of the regions (or possibly save money even if you only want 1 if we can get enough numbers).

$50 for all the CDs would be a nice target imo.
9 regions @ $120 / each = $1080!
So if we could get about 22 folks, it would be about $50 each for all the regions.

Does anyone else want to participate in this? Let me know.
Just did a little research. To get all 9 regions (new) is $738.83. That's about $82 each as opposed to $120. The discount at even 3 discs brings it down to about $100 each. Food for thought.

Yes, if you want to try and attempt a retro. It would be easier, faster, and more cost effective to buy and aftermarket system. It's not just plug and play is what I am trying to say.
I already asked this, and was dissapointed in the answer I was given.
