WOW this is GREAT NEWS!! I hope it retains it's touch screen functionality too.

On a side note:

I ordered a VW Navigation head unit for my GTI yesterday, I'll be installing it tomorrow. :) At first it was believe that the Mk5 headunits were tied to the cars, but people found a way around the security keys. hehehhe I got it for a FRACTION of the cost if I bought it new with the car.

That's fantastic!
Any news on whether the Sirus streaming video will work as well? Not neccessary, just a side perk.
Who is the official word on whether or not that mygig will work? Would a dealer parts guy know?

I heard that mygig wont work with our cars because the canbus system is entirely different or something like that. It'd rock if it did work though

There is only 1 canbus network, the MyGIG runs on the canbus network, there is only 1.

I can't tell you how happy this thread has just made me!!!!!

Anyone have the price for the MyGig unit if purchased from Mopar?

I guess I'll do a search and see if I can find it, I'm just lazy, you know ;)

wkjeeps has the MyGig MSRP listed at $1,860.00.

I think I'd be willing to pay that.

Just called my parts department and he says he has never heard of a MyGig Navi unit.

Well, then he's an idiot!!

Send him this link, and feel free to check out yourself. The link has not been updated by Milous to reflect the new info regarding our ability to upgrade:

http://www.wkjeeps.com/wk_nav_2.htm

EDIT: The reason he has yet to hear about it, for the Jeep that is, is because it is still not available for the Jeep. Will be in the new 08s. However, the MyGig unit is already available in the Wrangler and the Chrysler Sebring, so he should have heard of it, and this is why he is an idiot.

So, is there a way to the MyGig to work in the GCSRT8? Anyone have a wiring diagram yet?

Thanks in advance.

Milous just informed us thru the other site that a adapter will be needed for the UConnect to work and an adapter from the head unit to the existing satellite antenna will be required also. He is doing the install friday so we will know more and if it will work with the read entertainment system.

I cant wait for this upgrade!!! The navigation system alone is worth it, and it plays DVD's too, great news!!!

The MyGIG kit is going to come with all the necessary adapters to convert your 2006 to tey MyGIG.

AND, hopefully when the '08 comes out, the faceplate "may" just snap right in for a factory look. He will also be working on the factory back-up camera integration, as well.


Here is the "direct link"

While it's a longer thread, it really starts on page 7, 8. Look for the real info from Milous.

Me thinks this should be a "Sticky" here somehow:cool:
