Upgrading navigation system on TSX

Here's the deal... my girlfriend has a TSX, I think like a 2005 or 06. The navigation software on it is ancient, and needs to be upgraded.

She told me that the guy at the dealer told her that it was a hardware thing. Like she needed a chip installed or something. So I did some searching online for her, and found a bunch of DVDs for the navigation system, on ebay and whatnot. I now find the claim that a hardware upgrade is necessary to be dubious.

Is this as simple as ordering a DVD and installing it, or is it possible that she needs a chip?

Also, she isn't particularly tech-savvy, but she's smart enough to figure stuff out. I won't see her for a couple weeks, but if we ordered this DVD, is it as simple as her just putting it in the player and letting it do its thing?

Thanks everyone!

I would just look to see what city you live in. If it hasn't been updated then I wouldn't worry about buying another dvd.
