How did you add it to your Garmin?

QVC had a TomTom XL 335 with lifetime maps and traffic the other day for $130. Get your wife to order one.

[Sir Nuke]

BigRed.....who you talkin about? lol My wife already has one.

[BigRed585Lbs]

Some of the other unfortunates might not have one, or they might want to look at the backside of their cars as they are led down the road.

My wife thought adding the 'Hoe to the TomTom was cool! Anytime that happens, it can't be anything but good.

T_MECO......this info was current as of 7 months ago......if you have a new model, you should be able to do this with no problem. With the exception of the ones listed above, they have this feature.

Which Via do you have? the 1400, 1405, 1435, 1500, 1505, or 1535?

[Sir Nuke]

T_MECO.....I did a little investigation work on the Tom Tom site.....and you can install new images on ALL of the Via Series Tom Tom. You just need to go to the Tom Tom site and make yourself an account, which is where you do all your upgrades for maps and stuff, so certainly you already have a Tom Tom account.

and if your haven't.....go here

I followed the directions however I am only able to add POI and I have no options to add Images. I don't know why it only gives me the POI.
I have the 1435
