Nav database for Australia

I have a Sports SX and need to update the Nav database for Australia. I believe I need to go through Jepperson?
Do I simply call them and ask how to get access to the database? If so am I asking for a particular database or do I just say it is for GRT Sport?
Thanks

Jeppesen sells the data and has a Windows update program that downloads the data to your USB flash drive. When calling them, tell them you have a GRT Sport SX and want Nav Data that covers Australia (this is their "Pacific" coverage area). You can get the data in VFR and IFR versions and in some cases with or without obstacles. The IFR version does not add much to the display in the current software. It mostly adds fixes.

Thanks Jeff.
Talked with Jeppesen and they were very helpful.
Should be set from here.
