I have a 2006 JGC Overland and always wanted the MyGig, I was wandering is that MyGig a straight swap for the original 6 CD Sat/Nav stack or did you have to butcher the wiring to get it to work??
No butchering...wiring is all plug and play. You'll need the MyGig, Lockpic and adapter harness (comes with Lockpic). If you want additional features, like Sat Radio, Handsfree and VR you'll need to get those accessories.
You have to buy the Lockpic kit...which comes with all necessary plug and play cables. The hook up of the radio itself literally took 3 min. The bezel cut out was the hardest part.
If you already factory NAV in your 06, then you'll need this part to fill the gaps with your factor nav bezel:
OK thanks guys thanks veru much, low speed it is, there is one on ebay now currently £370, this site costs me some serious £££££££!
Bezel, lockpick & camera to follow!!!!
What all is really needed to install the mygig into an 06 GC? I have the factory nav, uconnect, and sat radio on my 06, so what all "extra" will I need to purchase? I just got a mygig unit, but which version of the lockpic do I need? The coastaletech website has several different versions. Also, will I need to get a new gps antenna, or will my old one work? For the uconnect to work will I need anything extra? How about the sat radio, will everything work the same?
I know there are a lot of questions, and I have been searching on this topic for a long time, but it would be really helpful to have all of the info in one location. Perhaps a thread with a sticky...? I'd be willing to put something together if I can get answers to all of my questions.....
