Anyone using this? I really would like to be able to turn the cameras on whenever I want as well as use DVD in motion. From what I understand Lockpick allows all of those, and more. Any other features it offers that are useful?

I used Lockpick in my Wrangler - worked great, wife would watch movies when we were on longer drives.
Didn't know they had them for Fords.

Plenty of times I have been going over 5mph(or whatever it is) without the diff locked or in 4x4 low but would love to have the ability to turn the camera on so i can see.

I was looking at NavTV. Not sure on the differences between the two. Just have not pulled the trigger yet.

May want to check with @The Car Stereo Company

Apparently it allows activation of either camera at any speed and any gear, so that's a huge plus. I also would love the DVD feature as well. Apparently they now have MyTouch Air too so you can cast your screen onto the display, so that's pretty awesome. I seen there's also an integration thing that allows you to be able to plug headrest screens into it and cast onto them too.

im not sure if they can activate the front camera on the 13/14 and newer trucks. their site kinda sucks on a mobile device. i remember when i had the nav tv group buys, there was a bit of confusion with coastal etech units. they were not able to allow front camera back then so the nav tv units were the ones to get. trying to get info off coastals site isnt going very well. guess i need to hop on a computer. if coastal does infact allow oem front camera, then it would seem its a cheaper alternative to nav tv.

Yes, their website rather sucks, but it seems like they are the go-to now over Nav TV. They say the cameras work fine now.

i have installed a few of their units a long time ago. the interface wasnt very good back then either. i remember getting the rear camera to work was a multi step procedure. im hoping the interface is simpler now. cant get the instructions to download.
