ggarcez Posted February 18, 2009 Report Share Posted February 18, 2009 Swan, It's not really that easy to do it..You'll need to extract the contents of the image.res and edit all the icons you want. Make sure they are in BMP windows format otherwise the unit won't read them. After changing everything you want just zip it bakt using a software called 7zp (google for it) and compress it as a .7zp file, change the extensio to .res and copy it back to the unit... Here's a them that I did.... http://www.avic411.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=21840 Maybe it's a good start. GUGA Quote Link to post Share on other sites
