Sewell Lexus - Navigation Update DVD, Data Version 8.1
Just got an email saying the update is available for purchase and $200 with $50 rebate, not bad of a price, the question is, is it worth the upgrade for those the have it?

It SHOULDN'T interfere with the wire cut I did for the DVD/BT right?

worth it depends on how old your old the other one is, how much new development has been done in areas you drive. the jump from 5 to 7 was worth it to me tho i lost the finger dance as everybody knows. i too am curious if it will function with either the wire hack or plug n play. Lexus is diabolical when it comes to this.

got confirmation that the 8.1 will not mess with the wire hack or the switch mod, i am sure it'll be fine with the plug and play kit
I will test it with a 8.1 disk this week to see if i can see any noticeable differences

i first read the add as $250 if you use the code and get the rebate (which means down from $300 tho it's not stated exactly way). I sure like your interpretation $250 down to $200, better. Reading it again, i'm not sure what it means. It can be had for $200?

I did the update every year, I usually buy the new one at a discount (say $250) and then sell the old one on ebay (around $100-150), so it not a bad price in the end !
My order has already been put and processed weeks ago ! I will post info as soon as I receive the disk...

streets around me are finished Oct of 07 in AZ I think.. so up until then is a good bet that it's updated in 8.1
I'll shoot u a pm later
I have neither, only the wire cut for the dvd/BT bypass. works flawlessly

To clear up a little confusion:
The price is 249.99 with the promotion code. You then have the option to return your disc for a 50.00 rebate.

PS. Also, you can go on Lexus.com and check address for the new update:
