This evening i took a furtive look into the BMW GS forum on

www.ukgser. (co/com/net/whatever-just type 'ukgser' into the engine)

On clicking 'forums' there is large menu of differing threads. One was titled 'GPS talk' or something.

A sticky on the top of the thread linked to a site where you can download all the gatso's, specs, mobile sites which the law like have placed or like to place their cameras.

The sites now show up on my QUEST as waypoints, red circle for gatsos, blue for traffic-light cameras etc.

I am not very good at computers but even i managed to download the sites into the mapsource programme which comes with the unit. All you then have to do is select the base maps to load into the quest (or other garmin unit) AND the two Safety camera maps. Do not just select the camera maps and load in or your garmin will show a blank screen with just the cameras on it.

Anyway its really easy and there are loads of replies and questions on the thread.

That is AWESOME!

As much as I hate technology, I love it.

oh by the way, You may need to download a version upgrade from Garmin before the camera overlay works.

I did and it was really easy.
