Special Credit to: wbif88, Russians, Brazillians, and many others involved in making this happen.

YOU ASSUME ALL RISK AND RESPONSIBILITY, THERE IS A CHANCE YOU COULD BRICK YOUR MYLINK

however; this was all tested on my own MyLink and worked great! If you are under warranty it should be no problem to have it replaced, just don't go tell them you were messing with things.

NOTE:

Some People have Reported, that they lose backup camera with the update to 24.5. You may need to downgrade back to your previous firmware. Please look at system version and write it down incase you need to go back.
