If I remember correctly the CARDINFO.cif files differ from update to update, but the string that selects a specific model (range) doesn't. A correct one naturally is still necessary.

It looks like here has released a new set of map updates for 2019. They are up in their online shop, but they haven't changed the manual links yet. Usual prices.
