Two, a friend with a D2 S8 needed one too, as he has an A4 unit which is too slim. The A6 unit fits fine with some trimming.

I already have, a while back. But he hasn't got back to me.

Yeah, I suppose. I was planning to flog my old one though so it was virtually a free upgrade.

Bloody hell. Ordered yesterday morning and shipped from Lithuania. It is currently sitting on my desk:

Confirmed that it is the right version and will bolt in, in the usual fashion. Now I just have to decide whether or not to bodge it in myself or get someone to do it. Hazzy Dayz seem to be too busy currently...

Go on fella you can do it. It'll only take you 15 minutes to get done. Does it come with the 2012 DVD? I've seen them on ebay saying that speed camera locations are now displayed, would be nice to get that confirmed before ordering the DVD.

Watching this with slight interest. Might be tempted to order one myself. Still smarting from being ripped off on the last one I "bought".

That might be a *smidge* optimistic.

Agreed. I know I could do it, but I would take a fair bit longer than that knowing me as I would be treble-checking everything and I want to add a few other things in at the same time.... I still have to get around to fitting the new mirror housings etc before ADI and they have been sitting around for I don't remember how long.

Maximo, to my knowledge, the only way to get speed traps on to the RNS-E was via Navpoint? - http://www.navpoint.co.uk/

It came with this, but the seller said that it may well be 2011:
