Default Nav hack and steering damper on 2011 isx50???

Hey guys, curious about two things. I'm wondering if it's still possible to do the Nav hack on 2011 or 2010 models? Also, do the 11's come with the steering damper? I just got a 350 and if not want to get that in there right away. Thanks for the help ahead of time!

I was told that the 2011's already have the steering damper in there. I was close to ordering one before a board member told me this. If it's not enough, drop ur car...maybe its just me but the steerimg feels heavier and more predictable aftery Fsport drop

Just heard from Sewell that the steering damper is only in the AWD...NOT the RWD IS's.

IS models that come with the damper:

2010+ IS250C/IS350C
2011 IS350 AWD (No RWD models, not the IS250 AWD)
2008+ IS F

If you have a 2011 RWD sedan or IS250 AWD, it does not have the damper.
