Someone correct me if I'm wrong, but I believe for the 2013 the nav is built into the entertainment system itself.

The only option for updating is to take it to the dealer where they have the custom software needed to update the flash memory.

It is a one-in-all unit integrated into the stereo and climate control.
It's not easily possible - manufacturers do it to limit gray market imports.
You may want to find local experts that deal with these very cases.
There's very little information you will find here.
