Replacement Navigation CDs

My California and Southwest US Nav CD scratched to the point that it does not read in my Nav unit. I have tried a few CD scratch repair kits to no avail. Is there a way around buying a new set of CDs from Porsche?

I don't know if it will work, but I'll try to burn you a copy. Mine is from 01 so the 210 freeway east of Claremont does not show. I'm located in SoCal also.

That would be fantastic! I have been looking on eBay and the kits are over 100 bucks, which seems crazy when I have a fully functional nav unit (nuvi 760) that seems fine. I just ordered an aggressive CD repair kit to try one more time to resurface the disk, but would love it if you could upload an image of it!

If I manage to fix the disc, I'll send you the 2004 version of the disc so that you can at least have updated maps.
