Nav/DVD Player in front when driving
 
Anyone know what you have to do to make the front DVD work while driving? 2013 FX4 :thumbsup:

Check out the lockpick device I know it works on 2012.

Lock pick. I have one and allows DVD in motion as well as front and rear camera in motion. Works fine

For the 2013 with the MyFord Touch system you'll need this to unlock video in motion.

Keep in mind though that the newer nav systems are not DVD based, so you'll need a video source that uses composite video and plug it in to the input in the center console.

also i remember hearing in the 09-10 system, the GPS antenna wire goes right behind the glove box, and they put a nice screw union in there to make it easy to unhook too if you want to watch DVD etc in motion.
I havent tried this so not sure if it works (I haven't burned a DVD in over 2yrs lol) the system may also sense from the neutral safety switch or CAN bus itself but I doubt it since it lets you type etc up to 5mph it seems GPS driven

Lockpick works fine on my 2013 Platinum with Sony/Nav. I ordered it along with the front camera option from Camera Source in the vendor's section.

Lockpick
 
So i watched the video on the install of lockpick:
seems easy enough but the comments I have heard about it messing everything up worry me a bit. I didn't realize you couldn't enter info into nav while driving. How has anyone found the voice system to be for the nav, any good? You would think Ford would wire in the the weight sensor for the passenger seat to accomodate the nav system so your co-pilot could enter everything while you were driving.

Ford, you reading this, sort this issue out, hear me. :thumbsup:

Anyone install Lockpick with the front camera setup? How difficult was it to do? Is it worth taking it to a shop to do it?

Not hard to install camera. If you can install the Lockpick in the video of the previous post, you can definitely install the camera.
