Default Navigation Update 17.1

Anyone have a source for v17.1 for a 15GSF other than the local dealer for $210?

For $200+, it would be nice if the navigation update comes with full screen enable like the MY16 model.

Do we have to do it at the dealership?

I see sellers on ebay selling discs for <$30

Edit: Also, what gets changed with the update?

The tech guy at Lexus of Watertwon (MA) told me that even if I did go with the '17 update, I STILL won't have the information on the removal of toll gates in the greater Boston area, which is nuts. In addition, there are only new road updates, but no new graphics or software. Meh.

Someone should be able to hack the display and give us full screen maps because the startup screen is full screen it might be possible. I hear there are hardware limiting factors, but some custom hardware should take care of this. I dropped out of college almost 10 years ago from a Computer Engineering degree program to start a business, lol I hated CE no offense to CE/EE's out there.
