I have routes as Google Maps Polylines in my project (an example, http://rutasgdl.com/rutas/626-2 ) and I want to add direction arrows to the routes. I want something like this (sadly, it is for Google Maps V2) http://wtp2.appspot.com/ArrowLine.htm

Can you point me in the right direction in order to achieve this? Regards.

The Google Maps API now supports this natively (as of July 2012).
