Look for <VinNumber> in GarminDevice.xml (located near to the end of file).
I assume you have to change it to the VIN of your car.
Cause my new car with Garmin Map Pilot will be delivered in 2015, I can't test it on my own.
But I'm interested if you can use the card after this modification, or if the maps are still locked

Is it possible to upload the entire SD card.
With xmldrive you can copy all the protections it.
In the NDS directory are also still NDS filles that are IMPORTANT.

hello,
when changing only the Car Id in the GarminDevice.xml; this is not enough to run the software. The message is still displayed "Cannot Unlock Maps" on start-up the car navigation.
I believe two files are necessary to copy into the SD Garmin root directory ; these files must be a copy of a SD card that was never be used or activated before in a new car.
The unused files to copy in Garmin root directory are: GarminDevice.xml and fm_sub.bin.
Can someone upload these file pls?
thks
