How to Install MYGIG Unit into 05-07 LX

Items needed to install MYGIG into Pre-08 LX

(1) MYGIG RER Nav Radio****low speed model only****Chrysler part# 5064401AH or higher revision. example part# ending in AI or AJ or higher.

(2) MYGIG adapter lockpick with optional A/V harness***Do not get confused with MYGIG lockpick***

This is available from Dom @ TVandNav2go(supporting vendor). You can contact them at sales@tvandnav2go.com or call them at 718-763-7367. In my experience his service is top notch service.

(3) Nav Antenna for MYGIG

(4) Mopar Mic for U-Connect operation Part#82211743AB for about $35-40(uconnect is built into unit, Mic is required for operation)

(5) Clock Fix Firmware Update Disk(clock on mygig would normally not work in 05-07 LX, this corrects the problem)

The next 2 items are only require if you intend to subscibe to Sirius. Sirius is built into mygig, these items are required for proper operation

(6) Sirius Sat Antenna Extension Cable - Chrysler Part#05064159AD(2 may be required depending how you route it) (only required if your going to subscibe to Sirius)

(7) Terk Sir-SP Splitter (only required if your going to subscibe to Sirius and have EVIC display)

(8) Cable Tie Wraps

Tools Requires: Basic Hand Tools

Installation Instruction:

IMPORTANT: Prior to beginning disconnect negative terminal from battery

(1) Old Head Unit Removal

(A) Remove Bezel
(B) Unplug Clock harness(if applicable), ESP switch harness and HVAC harness
(C) Remove Radio by removing (4) screws and unplugging all connectors from rear of head unit.

(2) Prepare Car and Lockpick Adapter

(A) Install New MYGIG NAV antenna(swap out with REC antenna or just adhere to top of plastic duct work behind radio)
(B) Route Sat Extension cable(s) from rear of car where old sat tuner is installed to front of car behind radio. Run the cable underneath the side trim that holds the carpet down then under the dash to back of the radio.
(C) Install U-Connect Mic to place of your choice, I mounted mine to the top left hand corner of the windshield.(see picture below)Run the wire under the a-pillar then under the dash to behind the radio.
(D)Configure dip switches of lockpick adapter unit per lockpick adapter instructions.



(2) Prepare MYGIG unit(see connection diagram below)

(A) Plug in NAV antenna
(B) Plug in AM/FM antenna adapter supplied with lockpick adapter to MYGIG
(C) Plug in AM/FM antenna cable into adapter.
(D) Plug in SAT extension cable into MYGIG
(E) Plug in male end of lockpick adapter T-harness into rear of MYGIG
(F) Plug in Female end of lockpick adapter T-harness into factory radio harness
(G) Plug in U-connect mic into MYGIG
(G) Plug in optional Lockpick adapter multimedia harness into rear of MYGIG(optional)*this will give you A/V input and output capabilities. For example, rear/front camera input, Audio/video out to headrests or Audio/video input from VES system.

*Use cable ties to keep wires neat and install clean





(3) Install Radio & Lockpick Adapter

(A) Install MYGIG unit car and secure with (4) screw removed from step 1C.
(B) Place Lockpick adapter underneath MYGIG unit(in back of HVAC controls

(4) Perform SAT info EVIC fix using TERK SIR-SP Splitter
*This is only required if you plan on subscribing to Sirius.

(A) Wire the Terk splitter into old sat tuner per picture below



(5) Update MYGIG firmware to version 9.897 or 1.295(latest) to fix Clock

*NOTE - If you do not perform the update correctly you can damage your MYGIG, it will essential turn your MYGIG into a big paper weight or brick, perform update at your own risk*

(A) Insert clock fix CD and follow on-screen instructions
*Do not shut car off while firmware is updating
*After the firmware has updated the system will reboot, WAIT till see the following message on the MYGIG screen.

Update from "9.897 to 9.897"

Press No then Eject the CD. This is the equivalent of the "Your installation is complete" window. Do not eject the CD before you see this screen and click No on it.

(6) Modify Bezel and Install

(A) Many have modified a non-nav bezel to the size of the MYGIG or fill in the nav bezel radio opening with ABS plastic, bondo, prime and paint to color of your choice. For the 300C you have another option of buying a 08 bezel and sanding the sides of the bezel to the same contour of the 05-07 bezel on the bottom 1/3 of the bezel.
(B) Reconnect Clock harness(if applicable), ESP switch harness and HVAC harness and reinstall Bezel
(C) Reconnect Negetive Battery Terminal
(D) Enjoy Radio

Here is picture of NAV bezel that I Modified

Before



Inprocess



After



Here is 2008 Bezel that was modified to fit 05-07 300C(much easier than above modification)

You have to replace the roof mounted antenna and the Sirius unit in the trunk for it to work.

No you need to change cause you won't get a signal and you have a dual wire and you need a single wire for it to work.

If you go back a few pages I had the same issue when I stalled mine.

FYI, I installed a RHR unit..2011 into my '06 300. Just had to buy a new roof antenna which on the RHR has both am/fm and satellite as mentioned above. But no need to swap out with the old roof antenna, I just placed it behind the radio in the dash and it works fine. Just secure it with tape of tie wrap. I have zero reception or Nav issues with the antenna located in the dash.

Do you have the lockpic adapter?

Funny that’s what I said you have to replace the two wire with the single wire. But it’s all good.

You might try these guys. I bought my mygig from Them a long time Ago. It looks like they have accessories.

It worked for me in an 06 going from the 6 CD changer to the rer. Can you post pictures of the plugs? Did you get the lockpick adapter? That may be your issue. MYGIG ADAPTER is what you need.

This is all four Lockpick Pro connectors do not fit RAK car harness. Just the RER rear connectors on radio. Is it possible I have the wrong Lockpick harness? Hmmm… Just asking. If so, what next?

Those are definitely not the correct connectors. I did the exact swap you're doing on my mag. It all plugged right in. You must have the wrong harness, I would contact whoever you bought it from.
