Open Source Maps for Garmin GPS

So I was preparing my trip to Hawaii in September/October.
I updated my Garmin City Navigator for North America 2024 into BaseCamp and downloaded a new mapset to include Hawaii into my GPSMap 78s. So eventhough the street details show up for all the cities, it didn't work for Hawaii. All I see for Hawaii is a grey hash. I ended up chatting with Garmin but nothing worked. I even exported a separate file specifically for Hawaii into a gmapsupp.img file and put it into my GPS. But that didn't work either.

I went into BBBike.org and created an export file. I did that last year when I went to Portugal and it went quite well. However, my latest map request seems to tell me that BBBike.org is not active. The website says 2023 but I've been waiting a few hours for the notification when the website said it would be about seven minutes.

Anybody know of any other websites I could download osm maps for garmin gps? All my previous sources are now inactive.
