Default my navigation system

I have a lexus RX350 2007 which i purchased in NJ, now i moved to spain and my navegation system does not work here, ovbiously it needs to be updated with the spain map,
I went to a Lexus dealer here once, they said that i will have to change the whole navigation system, which includes the whole dashboard!!, i just canīt believe this and i thought that maybe you can help me with that, is there a way this can be updated from the dealer in nj or maybe i can get a cd with spain area, I donīt know, can some one help me here?

Thanks,

Sally

Hello, welcome to the forum.

Maybe this might help, someone else might chime in too.

If this is all that's needed it's a huge help. I would be very leery about a dealer that tried to sell me a whole system and new dash. Maybe an innocent mistake, maybe not.

Could try to email them prior to purchasing the discs to see if it'll work, maybe even emailing some US dealers for their opinion such as Sewell.

Perhaps a call to Lexus corporate in Spain might be in order.
