I have a 2016 3500 has the plain jane radio no uconnect, just xm, i had a 2015 2500 that had the uconnect, compass, but no nav, I want to change out the radio to something similar or better, but here is the kicker, my new truck has a backup camera in the mirror, i would also like to add the high backup camera, so which radio should i go to?

Thanks in advance for all the help you guys are a wealth of info!

I'd your don't want to go aftermarket, you can do the swap/conversion to the 8.4AN Ra4 (or just an Ra2=plug n play) and move the backup camera signal from the mirror over to the radio. Info is around here somewhere...
get rid of back up camera in mirror?

DIY: 2013+ RA3/RA4 8.4" Radio Conversion Upgrade

Note: if you want to add the 3rd brake light (chmsl) camera also, you will need to either get a Lockpick Air V2 (Up To 5 cameras & wifi mirroring) or a CustomTronix RAx jailbreak (3 cameras). Info in the oem backup camera thread (see post 10) for the three RA4 inputs.
