they go in to there own folder on the unit
there is also poi,s preloaded in to the unit

I'm afraid no. The built in POIs are built into the map data. I just use the PGPSW ones and ignore the out of date and wildly inaccurate built in ones.

You need to chnage the type to CSV before you download them for Garmins.

Possible. If some of our POIs are wrong you can submit corrections here |
