If you go to their website which is linked in this thread you can see all they do.Different lockpicks for unlocking your nav system.

Just wanted to know how many folks have had this done successfully? Is everybody happy they did the install and did anyone have it "mess anything up?" Also, I noticed on their website that they rec. an ultimate lockpick 1 for the 2005-2006 GX, either with or without "6 disc DVD player." Do they mean with or without 6 disc CD changer in the glovebox? If I have the RSES and a 6 disc CD changer, which one do I need? Please give your input.

I have RSES system and installed the Ult. Pick. Love it, now my wife can watch movies while I'm driving. without having to sit in the rear. I usually just plug in my ipod and tune out the video on the screen. Don't want to have a accident. I also installed Viastech IPOD mod, which is a great product too. As of today, no problems with either.

Angry Hello???

Does anyone know how to get these folks to answer their telephone or reply to e-mails? Is there a secret password that I'm not aware of? I CANNOT get them to respond to me. Please reply if you've gotten any kind of response from them.

That sounds great. I have integrated XM and the Vaistech ipod modules installed and was thinking about getting the ultimate lockpick added and wanted to make sure it wouldn't screw anything up if properly installed. Would you please tell me if I need the version 1 with or without DVD changer? I didn't know what this meant as I have a 6 disc CD changer in the glove compartment probably like you do. Could you tell me exactly which one you ordered if you do have the 6 disc CD changer in the glove compartment?

I think you would have to order first........then email them and wait a day.
I am still waiting on my order. Customer service..(Kelley) emailed me twice.
Only thing i got out of her was the LP was out of stock.

At least they sent me an email! Better service?
Would everyone on this thread please share their ultimate lockpick installation experience and how the unit performed after installation? I am thinking about getting the Ultimate lockpick 1 with DVD changer option and was told by their customer service that I would need "you will need the ultimate lockpick 1 with factory dvd and an audio isolator." Does anyone know what the audio isolator is for and is it separate from the unit itself or does it come with the unit? I did not see a way to order it separately from the website. I didn't know if it was something extra that I would need because I have integrated XM and an ipod module integrated into my 6 disc CD changer from Vaistech as well as the RSES. Please help with your specific experience and advice. Are you happy you did this and would you do it again or no way? Thanks!

after i installed mine, ultimate, worked great for a few days, then noticed my Nav unit would throw me off by like 20 to 50 miles after i started the car each time. If anyone has had the same problem, is there a fix? I have sent Kelly numerous emails and havent got anything back yet so, i took it out and its sitting in my garage. i even tried to recalculate the nav and stil threw it off. my $.02 feels like i wasted the money instead of just pushing "I Agree", and dialing on my cell and my BT will take over. as far as nav input would be nice but i can stop for gas and waste 2 minutes vs driving and not putting anyone else in danger. If it didn't throw the nav off i would love it!

Was it easy for you to put in? How did you do this yourself? Do you think that there could be more than one way to install the unit that may have screwed up the nav?
