looking at a 2016 Ram express and as far as i understand...the cluster can is a simple swap to the premium 7"?
Also, an upgrade to the 8.4 uconnect with correct bezels and adapters is also fairly simple.
Sorry if I mis-state something as i'm learning as I go. Just trying to verify there's no show stoppers in the above.
I assume this would be true for any year Express (say 14 -19)?

Generally speaking yes. For clusters I'd find a 2016 or newer cluster and for 8.4 radios id recommend a 2018+ so you get the newer features.
