Hey ram owners!

I have a 2010 ram 1500,
It’s an SLT, with the Uconnect touch screen,

However I’m not liking the 09-12 touch screen and I’d like to upgrade to the 8.4 Uconnect. And get the big nice digital gauge cluster to go with it

I found a 14 ram big horn with the parts I think I need but I’d like to see if it’s possible first.

I’d assume for this to be functional the truck needs to think it’s a 14, so that being the tipm if it can directly fit,
The wiring harness off the tipm and then the 8.4 nav screen and the cluster.

Would this all be a direct unplug replug assuming the tipm will mount?

Unfortunately the communication protocols the were changed completely between the '09-'12 and the +'13 year trucks. The '14 8.4 radio can't talk to the '10 truck.
If you want a large screen radio for your truck it will have to be aftermarket

Side question, me personally I’m ok with the aftermarket radio but is the cluster possible to change? I have a 2010 1500 and would love that new stylish 13+ cluster upgrade. Like can I just splice wires in the pig tail and make it work? Or would have to program it as well?
