Updates are no longer available via "normal" channels, but they remain available from White Automotive & Media Services (WAMS), among other similar services. WAMS update service works well and is more prompt than their site indicates. (Their advertised turn time was two weeks when I sent my module to them.)
Removing the HMI module is a bit of a contortionist act but, aside from cramped quarters and uncomfortable positions, not that difficult. This
provides a decent tutorial. (I found it helpful to disconnect the OBD2 port and hood release from the dash.)
They had my module for only 2-3 days before I received a message the update was complete and it was on its way back to me. Their $35 charge for UPS Ground return shipping was excessive and unnecessary. Reinstalling the module was somewhat easier than removing it. Good luck!

I have updated three times. I updated on the last one and fortunately was one of the few that it worked, after three attempts.
I run the native GPS as well as WAZE. WAZE is for official vehicles and road hazards.
The native GPS has given me shortcuts going through SoCal on the weekends that WAZE did not tell me about. It also tells me about current traffic conditions.
The other reason I like it, s o much, is combined with the HUD, my eyes never leave the road. This has saved parts on my front end numerous times. You never know what is going to fall off the vehicle in front of you
