I don't think so. I think your disc is a 3.XXX version. The 2007 and 2008 navigation discs are a 4.XX version. Those version discs are specifically made for that model year TL...sorry.

The 2008 update for 04-06 TLs is v3.70, but good luck finding it.

Thats not totally true.

Yes, '07 & '08 TLs (and some other acuras & hondas) use a newer version 4.xx software, but there ARE yearly updates for ALL the navigation systems (v. 2.x, 3.x, and 4.x). The problem is, Alpine only produces a limited amount of discs, therefore they are quickly sold out.

Version 3.70 became availible in the fall of '07, and was sold out and listed as backordered very soon thereafter.

TL2498 and JCL622...you guys might check on EBAY for a disc. I've read on AcuraZine where guys have purchased discs there. It might be worth a try.

I got mine from someone on Craigslist. Brand new v 3.70 still it the plastic. She bought the disc for her TL, but soon after decided to trade the car in on a new MDX.

My win, I paid $160.
