Nav updates are installed via a flash device like a thumb drive ... NOT a DVD, since the maps are on a hard drive.

I assume the maps for your area would have to be installed the same way. The dealer would probably have to do it, though, since the US/Canada maps would have to be erased first.

Just my guess ...

US spec cars are hdd based

UAE spec cars are dvd based

there is no way you can change over unless spending a lot of money
