    Headunit Setup options help

    The 8.4 UConnect radios do not require the steering wheel audio controls. Those controls are standard with RAMS that have the leather steering wheel. When going with the OEM 8.4 in the Express consider only if you do or not have automatic temperature controls. If manual controlled HVAC, just...

    Chrysler 8.4 RA3/RA3 in a Ram

    Please be careful. Those radios mount slightly, yet, significantly differently. You'll need to modify the radio frame by grinding off the top aluminum tab and remove two tabs from the radio bezel to make it fit. The wiring harnesses work. The BIG problem....I tried a 2017 Chrysler 200 in...

    See the video posted by: oemautopartsco.com for the RAM radio upgrade. It does a great job of showing this. It's only a 10 minute job.

    5.0 Radio ?

    Yeah, there are a couple connections under the main fuse box (TIPM) that need to be soldered in. Just a note if or when you decide to upgrade to the 8.4 radio it'll be plug and play for the camera. Once the computer is flashed you are set.

    5.0 Radio ?

    Back Up Cam I started my first mod doing just this. I did however, just let the dealer do the install so they could flash the computer at the same time. This is a well spent item.

    Power Side Mirrors Add On

    Once again, so glad I posted this and asked. Of course, you're right. The mirrors I was looking at did not do the power fold even though the eBay seller insisted along with 1aauto.com that the part numbers I provided had that feature. I've bought new Kool Vue aftermarket that are power...

    Upgraded from base radio today

    Great! Did the same on my '16 Ram 1500 Express. You're absolutely correct in that the sound is very fine. Mine came with the voice control. So, it was easy to install with the conversion harness. The voice command works very well with this radio. ENJOY!:cheers:

    Power Side Mirrors Add On

    Progress I've acquired a pair of 2016 power folding mirrors for my RAM. I also obtained the DPDT 30 amp switch from Amazon. Now I see that these mirrors have different color wires from what was described here earlier in this thread. I've searched for, and I think I found the right wiring...

    Power Side Mirrors Add On

    Great Information Looks like what I'd try to do is a standalone system utilizing the mirror switch I saw for folding the mirrors. Then use a double relay system as with the door locks for open and fold. Even considered finding a mirror switch that I could mount on the dash if I am ambitious...

    Thanks, RLK for this information. I also forgot to mention I added the Upper Glove Box and a glove box light. Sure enhances that good looking dash. I'll be searching for a good buy on that shorty antenna as well.:favorites13:

    Power Side Mirrors Add On

    Please see newest post titled "PROGRESS". THANKS!! After doing a bunch of mods to my truck I have one issue in that I only have manual side mirrors. Since I put my truck in the one car stall in my garage as it is the deepest, I must get out and fold the passenger side mirror in before...

    Power folding Mirrors Has anyone added power mirrors? I've been thinking hard about this as this is the one niggle I'd like to improve. I park my truck in the one car stall in my garage as it's the deepest. Meaning I have to get out and fold in the passenger side mirror. The driver's side...

    Brings up a question I've had. Just how well does that shorty antenna work? I would love to change mine out if I knew the FM and FM HD would work well.

    Great mods!! I forgot to mention that I did the underhood light too. Great working, yet easy one to accomplish. Also a BIG THANKS for the additional information on the cluster mileage. I'll go back to just waiting for the mileages to sync, then install.

    12-13% off MSRP before rebates

    Part of the rebate price differences on different trucks also involves how long the unit has been in inventory. The oldest units get more rebate consideration from the factory to the dealer.

    I've been working on my new 2016 RAM 1500 Express Regular Cab since I brought it home September 10th. It has that great powerful Hemi 5.7 and the eight speed auto trans. Being a very basic truck, it had the upgraded interior but no power package, the RA2 UConnect 5.0 radio, and the 20" chrome...
