It's called My gig lockpick V.2. It allows you to run your nav while driving and have your dvd run without being stopped. I currently have that installed on my truck and it works great. Sal

Everything is plug and play, no wires to cut, very simple. It should take you 15 minutes from start to finish.

not sure i would try the lockpic right now. a bunch of people on this site are having issues:
https://dodgeforum.com/forum/4th-gen...-lockpick.html

if that is the only function you want restored try mygig myway:
http://mygig.110mb.com/
it's a firmware update that's much cheaper than the lockpick ($40)

I believe there is a program called Allgig as well that does essentially the same thing as lockpick.

I recommend the ALLGIG-USB over Lockpick. Other than the problems many Lockpick owners have been reporting recently you can upgrade the ALLGIG for free via USB thumb drive whenever new features come out. With the Lockpick you have to purchase a whole new unit.

Also, Lockpick's customer service sucks rocks. Once they have your money and sell you the product they act like you no longer exist. This is from personal experience, although I've read pretty much the same thing from others.

As far as that $40 software hack it's been pointed out that whenever any new MYGIG application software comes out and the owner upgrades it will render that $40 hack useless. Someone can spend another $40 and buy a hacked hack as long as they offer an update.

I purchased mine from www.oemautoco.com and had zero issues with the lock pick. I would not buy it from any where else. To many imitations out there. You don't have to purchase a new unit, it's a wire harness that goes from the radio to your existing harness.
