Upgrade to the Z3 with maps, unlock etc.... Garrett has it relatively cheap and all you have to do is screw it in! Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I guess then that you do not have the official (=bought) DVD version..... The only way you can update to Z3 by DVD is buy the official version, and generate a custom password for your specific Z1 and DVD.... Only other options are to either unlock your HD and put the software on directly, or buy a new pre-installed harddisk from garrettoomey Quote Link to post Share on other sites

CamelTowing Posted January 4, 2009 Report Share Posted January 4, 2009 They didn't charge for mine, I just followed the instructions w/ the number to call from the pioneer site. Or try using a friends PC to burn it they charge for the cds.. and the download is free. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

CamelTowing Posted January 5, 2009 Report Share Posted January 5, 2009 The firmware update fixes freezing problems and is free. The upgrade disk to turn your Z1->Z3 costs $120 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
