How to put other country maps (India in my case) for FREE on a Garmin nuvi 40LM GPS that was purchased in USA
I purchased a Garmin nuvi 40LM GPS in the United States. It worked beautifully well - so well that I did not want to part with it when I was moving back to India. But the challenge was not how to put Indian maps on it (that you could purchase online any day) - but the challenge was to put them for FREE! Now since I was going with the free option, I knew I would have to compromise on a few things and I was completely ok with that. So this technique is not for those who could shell out somewhere around ₹5000 for maps that work great and save on a few hassles. I personally felt that in India you really don't need GPS that much, you could ask anyone anywhere on the road and they would be able to guide you to the best of their knowledge. But this technique is for those who just want free Indian (or any other country) maps and can compromise on a few things (which I'll explain later). Let's start with the process!
