    HD tuner is a radio

    The factory radio has issues pulling in FM stations... I wonder if the same issue applies to an HD tuner?

    How to with a stock head unit

    I was always told that the stock head unit should be replaced first and that makes the biggest difference.

    Need info/ideas for Sound/speaker Upgrade - 2014 RAM 2500

    I replaced my head-unit with a, exact-fit DVD GPS Nav unit from radio-upgrade and it sounds very good. My son thought I installed a subwoofer, but it was just the stock speakers on the high-powered deck. I'd go that route first.

    Upgrade speakers with aftermarket stereo

    No Uconnect anymore. And you lose XM Radio (unless you use bluetooth streaming from the app). I guess you could add a tuner and use the AUX inputs. Bluetooth streaming and handsfree works great. It has the input for backup camera or DVR. Has outputs for amps or video headrests (i am...

    Upgrade speakers with aftermarket stereo

    I was thinking of a speaker like Infiniti or Polk that are very efficient for good sound. But if there is not a dramatic difference, it is not worth it to me. My radio I have had for 3 months now... love the nav... I was missing satellite radio alot, so I downloaded the app and used...

    Lights behind the grille

    I did see that post before about lights behind the grille with no brackets. I just hate to drill big holes like that in the truck... I was hoping for an aftermarket bracket that would bolt into the factory holes for something and provide a nice height to install a couple lights. Maybe...

    Upgrade speakers with aftermarket stereo

    I upgraded my stock Uconnect radio with the exact-fit unit from Radio-Upgrade.com. It is a high power unit, and makes the stock speakers sound really good... much better bass. Will I see a noticeable if I upgrade the factory speakers to high-end aftermarket speakers? Keep in mind that I...

    Lights behind the grille

    I have a 2013 Ram Crewcab Express. I want to add some lights behind the grill. I have had the Piaa Fog Lights, and I really like them. Has anyone installed lights behind the grill? Did you make a custom bracket? Any help is appreciated. I want it to be hard to see the lights through...

    How to NOT have it read text messages?

    Mine never did that. I did head the sound when I got mail, but only when I was streaming over the bluetooth. I replaced the factory rqdio, so not longer an issue!

    Can you add steering wheel controls for audio?

    I have look at several posts, and I think the consensus is that you cannot add the buttons on the back of the steering wheels easily. Is that right? I would think that it would not be that hard. Are they pre-wired? Can you just add the switches? If not, can you simply buy that cable and...

    OEM camera to Aftermarket double din?

    Most radios accept a RCA plug for the backup-camera. You can splice an RCA onto the camera wires easily, and then just run power and ground. They sell those RCA jacks with open wires at Radio Shack. My radio automatically senses when the vehicle goes in reverse and switches to that input so...

    New Uconnect Software Available 14.05.03

    It's an easy update. I just did it for my brother's truck. I upgraded my factory radio to a GPS Nav unit from Radio-Upgrade.com, but he had the stock Uconnect 5.0. Only glitch was a browser pop-up blocker that was preventing the download. Once we got past that, it was easy.

    Operation: Big speakers little holes

    I'll bet that will sound great. I bought the JL Audio stealthbox, and I was not impressed with the sound. I returned it a week later. I just hate to lose much space under the rear seat.

    Need new interior around Austin, TX?

    I highly recommend austin-interiors.com. They did a great job replacing my cloth interior with a very nice leather kit. I was able to customize the look, so there is not another Ram around with this interior!!

    Audio Upgrade & Modification Basics!

    My aftermarket deck has an input for the backup camera that is a simple RCA plug. The deck automatically knows when you are in reverse... through the wiring harness, and switches to that input for the signal. Then when you go to drive, the input changes back to the DVD or radio.
