Highlander Navigation Upgrade: First, remove the navigation card from the car and delete all the old navigation files inside the navigation card. Then, find the latest version of the navigation software, rename the original root directory of the navigation device to the new file name, and open the folder to replace the NAVIONE in the three files NaviOne.dll, NaviOne.exe, and NaviOneSCH.dll with the name of the navigation root directory folder. Below is some related information about the Highlander navigation system: 1. The Highlander DVD navigation system is designed specifically for the Toyota Highlander after extensive research. It features an 8-inch 800*480 digital high-definition display with exquisite picture quality, built-in navigation, dynamic UI design, rearview input, and a shutdown clock display. 2. The Highlander DVD navigation system comes with built-in navigation (including KLD navigation or DDT navigation software), supports external headrest screen playback, and has a wallpaper setting function (the DVD screen can freely change the background image according to preference). It provides clear gesture actions and precise voice navigation prompts, offering timely and accurate guidance during driving to choose the most ideal route. Facing the ever-changing road conditions on highways, combined with accurate GPS navigation maps, it provides efficient driving information in a timely manner, ensuring smooth and unobstructed travel to the next destination.
I recently helped my cousin upgrade the navigation system in her older Highlander, and it's actually quite simple. First, prepare a USB drive with at least 32GB capacity, then go to the Toyota official website and find the 'Map Update' section. Enter the last four digits of the VIN to download the exclusive update package. Make sure to select the correct model year during download. After unzipping, copy the entire folder to the root directory of the USB drive. In the car, don't start the engine—just power on the electronics and plug the USB into the port in the glove box. The system will automatically pop up an update prompt, and the whole process takes about forty minutes—do not disconnect the power. After updating, remember to check all the 'Navigation Disclaimer' terms to use the system. But honestly, mobile navigation is more convenient these days; this kind of in-car navigation update is mainly for owners who prefer using the factory system.
