Nav CD for CD based SL...

03 with the previous style CD based Nav. Bought it used and has the wrong region CD in the box. Can these things be duped, bought off ebay, or what? I'r my understanding that the only way you can get them now is to buy the entire set, at $200 bucks or so. Also, will the disc from an MCS style NAV (W163 ML) work? Thanks for your help...

They wanted $285 for a new updated CD set at RBM. Maybe we buy one and and split up the CDs for people in other regions. Unfortunately, we are both from GA. Anyone interested?

Yeah it seems that they are using Safedisc v2 for data copy protection and I'm sure there is a way to get around that but it is going to take some work to get around it.

I have tried both CloneCD and Blindwrite. Both will not even read track one of the disc ( got stuck in the beginning ). I used two different brands of dvd burner (NEC and Plextor) and both got stuck at the same point. May be another reader will work?

Any ideas?
