Custom Garmin Vehicles
Found these two fantastic sites.

This one has preloaded custom vehicles.

http://www.vehiclesforgarminnuvi.com

this one allows you to upload a SRF file and it returns a PNG file that you can edit with GIMP and then upload the PNG and it returns the SRF file for you. (MS Paint doesn't work)

I used it to create my pajero.

I only edited the first top and bottom image of the PNG file as I only use the track up feature on my nuvi.

Marius,

That is pretty nifty, thanks.
My problem is that I prefer to have to map display always facing north. This means that I need a vehicle image that I can clearly identify the front and rear. So currently I use an arrow, how boring can life be???

I'll scratch around on those websites and see what emerges.
