I have a friend that makes them, shoot me an email and I'll forward it onto him.

Hope this helps.

MINI File download page

 

Right-click and do a file...save as... (or whatever your browser names it) on the download link once you find the one you want.

fwiw, I was not able to use their files on my 755. Apparently the specs are slightly different. I ended up having to make mine myself. Of course, that means mine has my stripes on it.

 

Here is the link to the page, the above link didn't work.

I used the mini files for my new 1350LMT Nuvi and it worked very well.

 

I found it to be a PITA too, but it finely worked. Can't remember what I did though. :frown2:

I can't get it to work either and i'm using a Mac :mad2:

 

Checked it out too...I'm getting

Forbidden
Access denied by access control list.

If you would like I'll host them and hang them on easy to access location.

 

Tried on my Mac and Win7 box and no luck with either. I also tried with IE, Chrome and FF.

 

If it helps, I have the srf files for the red mini w/black stripes that I downloaded from the above site before it went bad. I also have the mini logo jpg that can be used as the opening screen when your garmin powers on. I'll post them tonight after work.

 

What all were you able to get. I'm still not having any luck and was hoping to nail the laser blue with stripes.

 

Well, srf files can't be uploaded to the post - PM me and I'll email them to anyone who wants them. I have red with black top and stripes, and also found a legacy file that has silver, red, laser blue, BRG, sark silver and yellow, but don't know the roof colors.

Instructions to install:

1-Use a USB cable and connect to your Nuvi to your computer.
2-Navigate to the Garmin \ Vehicles directory
... you should see other srf files there.
3- Copy your new MINI (or other srf) file to this directory.
4- Safely remove your Nuvi from the computer.
5- Power on your Nuvi.
6- Select to Tools, Settings, Map, Vehicle
7- Use the scroll arrows to find you new vehicle icon and select OK..
8- Enjoy navigating with your MINI icon in your MINI.

Add the splash screen logo to the pictures folder - once you've started the unit, go to settings and choose this picture as the startup screen.

 

You are correct, srf files cannot be attached. I will be happy to place them on the server and provide links to download.

 

That would be great Nathan.

I can still get into the NAMeless site and retrieve any info you all need, as long as it's still there.....

 

Nathan said he would host it here. I think that is a great idea.

we're just talking the srf files, right?

Here's the download page for all the custom MINIs already done...
