So i found a 8.4 and a new bezel for a great price on Craigslist!! Question is, I know there is threads, but I am wondering is it at all plug and play? Guy seems to think so....
I have a 2015 Ram Black Edition, has the 5in. in it now, back up cam, and i Believe a 7 speed blower. If I buy the screen and bezel, what else do i need?
Thanks!
