The stock blue car looks similar to my Z, but I'll try out the blue one on this thread. Thanks.

Thanks!! I just downloaded the dark color... will wait for the PG if you get it.

I tried making a silver/grayer car - white looks kinda dark already, but here it is:

:iagree:


Could somebody on the board where this guy is making these ask him for one? (I don't really want to sign up on a message board for just for one post)

Chicane Yellow Garmin Vehicle Icon
 

Just got a Garmin - made a chicane yellow version of the vehicle icon.

(See attached .zip file)
Tested and working on a Garmin 1350.

wow looks very good!

Bump. Many of the links in this thread are dead. Can we please re-upload these Garmin vehicle .srf files for those of us who never got them?

:iagree:

Yah, broke links for Monterey Blue..... Drat, wish I'd seen this thread before. :(

very fun idea. too bad i missed it earlier also - and too bad no roadsters...

Alright everyone, I made my own Chicane Yellow 370z Garmin vehicle model. Here you go. All you have to do is connect your Garmin to your PC and copy the .srf file (inside the attached zip) into your Garmin's "Vehicle" folder. Then disconnect USB and select the vehicle from the Garmin settings.

Anyone have any idea how you could get these on a Nissan Nav. I tried just putting them on a flash drive and plugging it into the USB port, but who really thought is would be that easy.

Repped :tup:

Sorry, these .srf files only work with Garmin.

Thanks! I'd be willing to make them in other colors if there is enough interest.

A red Z will be nice. Thanks.

blue z please :)

see post #29 for blue z

doesnt work

Silver please! :)

Black cherry! :tup:

I was the one that initially started this thread. Below is a working link to a zip file with 3 different color Garmin 370Z vehicles. (will not work with Nissan Nav, only Garmins)

Vehicle colors are dark gray, silver, blue.

Black cherry would just look like black on a Garmin screen. Or I could make it more red but either way it wouldn't look good, IMO.

I'll do a better version of MB (I don't like the one that's already out there) and I'll do red for now. Not sure when I'll have time to do it though.

:tup::tiphat:

Just picked up a new Garmin, any chance of reposting the files? the links are dead again

Thanks

For some reasons teh linky appears to be broke. :ugh2:

Red! FTMFW!................please

And I have the Kenwood DNX-6960 w/ Garmin as well........

Link isn't working for me. Anyone have a new one that works? It would be pretty awesome to have the Z in my Garmin display.

Try the link again... I just placed that zip file back on my server.

Vehicle colors are dark gray, silver, blue, yellow.

Thanks!

Thanks!

Very cool.

Thanks Bill

i put a yellow coupe in mine... but have not found any roadsters at all...

Going to install this when I get back home this weekend. Thanks Billarf!

There is a silver/gray looking coupe in the Garmin vehicles I was using, but this one is SO much better. Great work!!! Thank you

To install on a Kenwood DNX-6960 follow the link below. I used a micro SD card with the files loaded on it. You can use this same procedures to load or update your Maps.

im so happy i stumbled on this thread! thankz for the link!!

I know it's an old thread, but does anyone have this ZIP file? The download link is down again.

http://www.auffarth.com/BillFolder/Nissan370Z_MB.zip

I'd like to have this as well. The closest I've found so far is a 350Z on Vehicles for GARMIN nuvi

I actually wanted a red one so I downloaded the yellow one and converted it to a .png file. I edited the .png file to make the car red using Paint Shop Pro 7 (you use your favorite photo editor). I then converted the file back to a .srf file and uploaded to my Garmin.

Here is a website that will allow you to convert .srf to .png and vice-versa.
nüvi utilities

Here are the steps I took:

1. Download the attached zip file (found earlier in this thread)
2. Extract the yellow_370z.srf file
3. Upload the file to nüvi utilities
- Under Vehicle File Converters srf2png, click on "Choose File"
- select the yellow_370z.srf file you extracted from the zip
- click on "Convert it" and you can download the the .png file
4. Edit the .png changing the color of the car (you'll have to figure out how to do that based on the program your using)
5. Upload the file back to nüvi utilities, this time choosing the "png2srf" section
6. Once you've downloaded the new .srf you can hook up your Garmin and transfer it over.
