:welcome:
Copy the map into the Garmin folder of the main memory or microSD card.

Get the map from here and unzip to get the "gmapsupp.img" file.

Err... I'm using Oregon 550 actually. But the software should be similar to Dakota.

I'm currently having 2 maps in my microSD card. Both in Garmin folder. Also, you can change the filename to anything. Mine is "MSM NT v5.04.img" and "Indonesia Map v1.80 NT.img". Both are copy and paste too.

So long the maps are not locked, it should work fine. :mrgreen:
