I currently reside in East Africa in Addis ababa- Ethiopia. even Nissan Dealer doesnt seem to know much about the Armada!!!. Currently I have 2 major concerns:1- is how to be able to add any maps (if ever available) to the factory installed navigation system, specifically for east and north africa region. I am not interested in the in-town detailed maps of streets but rather the main-major roards of large scale.2- How to be able to watch DVD on the from monitor while in motion.Hope his answer helps you out! Welcome to the Armada/QX56 Forum! Glad to have you as a member of NICOclub, especially someone from Africa! Watching DVD's while in motion is a very simple mod to complete, especially on the '08 Armada. Did you find the thread on how to do this Here is the link to the thread:http://forums.nicoclub.com/zerothread/301458You don't need to worry about using the relay pack, you can complete the mod using a DPDT (Double Pole, Double Throw) switch that costs next to nothing.

Zenrin.com is the company who makes the NAV DVD's but as far as I can tell from their site, the only African country with any maps listed is South Africa.
