Download the update file, which is tiny and takes seconds. Unzip it then use POIloader to create and install the new file making sure you use the same name so it overwrites the current one.

Only takes a few minutes, tops

Before you get that model consider whether you would benefit from Garmin's traffic.

Lifetime maps are well worth it but the traffic is a bonus. Normal traffic is just the TMC RDS which covers motorways and most A roads but has a poor update cycle (15 to 30 mins in my experience) whilst the digital traffic is updated almost every minute and is a boon these days.

LMT-D is my recomendation
