looks like a lot of money to look at your backup camera while your supposed to be driving ?


LOL

they have been around for a while but I have not seen any feedback

 

I have one and use it with a second camera to see the 5th wheel hitch when hooking up. Works great, easy to install. Thinking of adding another camera to front to see when pulling forward. Can't always tell where the front bumper is.

 

Good to know! I plan on putting one up by the rear cab light and one in the front. Being able to get several inches closer in the front makes all the difference when maneuvering in a tight parking lot.

 

Yeah having the ability to see my GN ball would be great for hooking up.

 

I want to enable the rear view camera at a red-light so I can see the look on the guy's face behind me after dumping a cloud of smoke all over his car. :thumb:

 

Won't be much to see

 

I have one of these on my wife's Yukon Denali. Love it. Makes it a blast for road trips! Would recommend!

 

I had the lock pick for my 2009 Jeep Rubicon and 2007 Escalade. They work great. I found both used on the forums or eBay for about $100 each.

 

It unlocks navigation, videos and cameras while in motion.

 

I have it and it works great. I use it to watch dvds or movies off my ipod when on road trips. Its also nice to be able to use the navigation and other features while driving down the road.

 

Great! I will get one soon. Preferably one for $100 used but we'll see...

 

I have it and use it for the unlocks in-motion and an in-bed camera.

I'm planning on getting a 5th wheel this winter. What camera do you have and how did you mount it?

 

I can't believe this thing existed and I didn't find out about it until now...

 

Wish they would validate its operation with thee 2015 Superduties...I would like to get one and have it available when my truck arrives...

 

I bet there's a good chance it'll work on a 2015 because Ford is still using MyFord Touch, but you never know I guess. I would give Coastal Tech a call and ask them now.

 

Hi Larry,

Thanks for the inquiry.

I'd recommend checking back towards the end of the year. I do not have an exact date yet.

Thanks, and have a great day.

Is there any idea when the FREEDOM IN MOTION MYTOUCH LOCKPICK 2 for all MyTouch Ford Lincoln systems will be tested with the 2015 Ford SuperDuty? Are there any anticipated problems at this time with compatibility?

Are you talking to yourself in third person?

 

this is the contents of the email I sent to Coastal and their response to me.....

 

Awesome.. Thanks!!

 

Does anyone know if the front camera needs to be capable of reversing or mirroring the captured image? ...Or does the LockPick itself have the capability to do so?

My new sound system is being installed this Friday and I'd like to have the LockPick + Front Camera installed at the same time, but I don't know what type of camera I need!

 

Here is one option.

I thought that I had seen one already mounted in the correct emblem, but I can't seem to find it.

 

That would work nicely, but all I need is the front camera. I found the front camera only, but not sure if I want to get rid of my aftermarket emblem. I'm thinking if I change the emblem color from blue to black, I'll be willing to swap grille emblems.

Eh, I ordered it anyway! It's hard to beat a camera that looks factory, like the rear camera. I'll just throw some vinyl wrap over the blue oval. Sterling 6.7, thanks for the link!

 

That's funny! Let me know how it works out - the camera and the lockpick. I've been pondering the lockpick for sure and maybe the camera.

 

I'm very interested in the Lockpick as well, has anyone determined wether it could mess with the trucks factory warranty?

 

They would have to claim the Lockpick was related to the failure at hand. You are better off with them not knowing you have one...

 

Well, it's funny you asked. I have to call Coastal Electronics tomorrow because there was apparently a problem with the front camera feature. I say "apparently" because a technician at Car Toys was supposed to install it for me along with a new audio system. It was installed to the point the rear camera was fully accessible, but not the front camera. The technician spoke to Coastal Electronics, but believes my particular unit is not functioning properly. I'm calling them tomorrow and hopefully get it all sorted out without any problems...

 

I had it on my 2011 King Ranch and everything was perfect, I wanna do it now on my 2015 Platinum but wasn't sure if it will work. Thanks

 

I should have installed it myself because now I'm taking the word of an audio technician that something is wrong with the unit. I thought it would be convenient to have the lockpick installed at the same time as my sound system since the dash needed to be opened up anyway. The rearview camera enabling worked, but it would kick me out every time the front camera was suppose to turn on. The front camera was going to be the best part. I still haven't called Coastal yet, but will hopefully have some time tomorrow...

 

Has anyone took the gamble and ordered one for there 2015? Why would they not test it?? Should not be too hard to find someone(offer them a free unit??) and it would open up a lot more sales for them.

 

I ordered one and hooked it up.....i could switch on the rear camera....i did not have another camera to test a second input.....nor did i take it for a drive to check the nav input...I am confident it would work ok....but long story short....i returned it....i could not see paying 340 for it at this time....

i decided to buy a tailgate cable, stock Ford 2015 camera, Ford Bezel and 10 ft of 4 conductor wire to make a long cable. I built a mount to look down on my 5th wheel from some scrap tubing/steel.....this set up cost me about $150 and serves my needs a lot better.........yea yea, i know.....i got to lay under the bumper to hook up and disconnect the cable...



FYI....i did notice the cable on the LockPick 2 is not really long enough to mount the box where you can access it with ease. Maybe the next person can find a different location besides above the glove box on the console side of glove box. Cable was not long enough to place the control box in the glove box like the previous lockpick version.
