1. What is the part number for the 2004 LS 430? (Latest being 6.1, right?)
2. If you have a Lockpick and you've upgraded, does everything still work?
3. For those with an 04 and that have done the upgrade, is it worth it?

Thanks to all who respond.

 

1. PT219-GEN04, and yes, 6.1 is the latetst version.

2. I don't have a Lockpick, so I can't say.

3. It was for me, but I'm a heavy user of the NAV, and I like having the most current road and POI data available. Only the maps and POI database is updated. There is no update to the interface.

I have a Verizon phone, and Verizon blocks the ability to upload phonebook entries via Bluetooth. I manually enter numbers using the keypad on the nav screen. I've only added one-touch numbers, so I can't say about the procedure to enter non-one-touvh numbers, but I would assume it's doable throught the keypad. The one-touch numbers handle my most frequently dialed numbers. If I need to dial another number in my phone's phonebook, I access it with the phone and then close the phone and let the bluetooth connection handle the call from there.

 

So you're telling me if you go into the "Destination" screen and tap on that little thing in the upper left the script no longer works????

If so, I ain't upgradin'

 

does the same upgrade work in a 2001?

 

Yes, but the part numbers are different because '01's have a gen2/3 navi, and +'04 have gen 4.

Regarding the Navi updates, it really depends on where you live. If you live in an area like mine, (Tampa, FL) where the growth rate is astronomical... you will notice a lot of difference in between updates. The updates also add older roads... they dont have to be new for the new edition to be incorporated.
