To do it yourself, you'll need a USB drive with 4GB of free space, and about an hour's worth of time to complete the process. The amount of time to carry out the process does depend on the speed of your Internet connection. • Visit and enter your car's VIN. You can find this on your insurance card, or in the bottom corner of front windshield on the driver's side of your car.

(I was never presented with the option to request a USB drive be sent to me. Your experience may be different.) Click on Get Started to continue.

Jul 22, 2013 I did my own upgrade from the 4.3reb to the 8.4N. I got the unit off ebay. My 2012 300 limited had the 4.3 factory unit, yet the car has the nav.

Only instead of walking you through the process as you actually do each step, this tutorial is before you can actually download or install any files. Read through it if you want, but it's not necessary. Keep clicking Next until you get to the screen above. As you go through the tutorial, you'll notice mention of a program called Akamai NetSession Interface. This app solely exists to help you manage the actual download of the software update.

I didn't install it, as it's only purpose is to help manage interrupted downloads and I wasn't going to install it for a single download. Besides, most browsers have similar functionality built in. Keep clicking next on the tutorial until you arrive at the following screen. At the end of the tutorial, click on the ' here' link to go to the download page. Screenshot by Jason Cipriani/CNET Scroll down the page until you find the Download button, only don't click it. Doing so will install that download manager I previously mentioned.

Instead, click on link just below it which links to a direct download of the update in ZIP file format. After the download finishes, open the ZIP file and move enclosed file (titled 'swdl.iso' in my case) to your USB drive. Do not place the file inside a folder on the USB drive. The final part of the process requires sitting in you car, plugging in the USB drive and putting you car in ACC mode. After a few minutes of waiting for the car to read the USB drive, I was presented with a screen to update the software (as soon atop this post).

Tap on Yes to proceed. Jason Cipriani/CNET.
