Did you try them out anyway? I want to know if they plug and play without issue and see how bright they are!

Ok so even with the USB card I got the same error after hitting 100% completion, "error, restart software update" but I guess it might be some sort of bug (the showing up of the error) as the maps now show (I think) the latest version:

V03959800QS0166 ECE 2018

and below each country map, it shows 2018.

Nav works as usual so can't be bothered more...

I suspect doing this update broke my internet. It's not been the same since.  :angry: :laugh:

Just on updating my SD card now. Using the direct download file posted earlier in this thread.

My existing card had a maps folder and a .txt file. I’ve copied both of these to my Mac as a backup then deleted them off the card.

I’ve extracted the 7zip and there is a maps folder and a .md5 file which I’m copying to the SD card.

Is that all I need to do? Any reason why the old version had a .txt file and then new one has a .md5 file?

It's just a checksum file.

I don’t know what a checksum is lol but I copied it to the card anyway!

Everything seems to have worked and my version info now says 0915 ECE1 2018.
