Very useful tip,Minko to create typ files with night display on such devices.

I've noticed on Nuvis with a Garmin Map that when travelling through tunnels 
display automatically changes to a night version.
I've not been able to create this effect using tunnel=true. Is there a flag in 
the img we don't as yet know about?

Has anyone else been successful?
