A hit list is displayed and whatever I choose is then used as the destination address. I can't reference a manual page since I'm still awaiting my 2014 manuals from Sonnen but I'm sure it's in there somewhere.
I doubt you need to ProClip in order to enable this, any iPhone to USB connector should do the trick ...

Cool info. Haven't been paying enough attention but I do find the navi way below average for a 2014 car. Should be a lot more intuitive and easy to put in destinations and search for them. I guess it's the price you pay when you prioritize performance over daily comforts.

Spot the developer...


But seriously: I think I know where your head is at, and I bet you're right: it can't be that dificult to "decrypt" the .navi file.
