It Works great on the 2006 !!!! The wires are just in a diferent location. They are on the plug closest to the passenger. I did this Bypass and the phone dialer is also operational while moving (dvd too) , JUST LOOK FOR THE PURPLE WITH RED STRIPE, AND LIGHT GREEN.....
THANKS GUYS

Ever since I did this my navi is all over the place! I was near the beach the other day and the navi had me swimming out in the middle of the ocean! So, I did a re-calibration in the menu setup, and got it back to where it should be just to have it lose th eexact location again! It's off by a street or so, and completely going the wrong way. Then, other times it's fine. Is anyone else experiencing this? It's pretty frustrating.

I just plugged the Ultimate Lockpick 3+ into my 2007 and it ROCKS! No problems with installation and performs just as described. Customer service at Coastaletech was great and shipping was fast. I recommend this to anyone who wants these options on their nav unit!

No. I don't have the RSES or any factory DVD player. I have the the Levinson sound system with CD Changer and AUX input for iPod. I "hung" the lockpick aux RCA cables under the glove box where I can pull them out and plug in a laptop or portable dvd player to play dvd's. I need to try out a video iPod and see if that will work plugged into the factory AUX input, now that I have the lockpick installed. I don't know if the lockpick will recognize that as a video input since it's not plugged into their harness. We'll see.

I also have a 2007 with Mark Levinson sound system with the CD/DVD changer in the glove box. Coastaletech told me it wouldn't work with my car because of the changer. Is that what you have? Did they tell you it would work or did you just take a chance and it worked?

That's the same set up that I have. I emailed them with what I have and they said as long as the changer did not play dvd's, I would be ok. I haven't tried a cd yet, but I will here shortly. I haven't had any problems with the Nav, radio, bluetooth, or any other function within the radio or nav unit.

Sorry to keep probing but were they saying don't play a DVD in the system, or if it is capable then it would not work? I don't play dvds because it only functions at a stop with the parking brake engaged a little. I only play CDs for that reason but I want the features of the lockpick. Is yours in the glove box? If like mine, it will play DVDs and CDs. Does yours play DVDs?

I just did the DVD override while installing my Vais SLI. For a 2006 the wires are on the harness closes to the passengers side. The green wire with brown dots need to be grounded, and the purple wire with red stripe need to be spliced. I covered the splice ends with liquid electrical tape. Took me less than 1 hour for the DVD override and installing the SLI. Thanks for all the great info everyone.
