head unit question

[Miller]

i've looked and looked. i can't seem to find a part number for the direct fit head unit for my 2012 ram 1500 ST. also don't exactly know all my options yet still researching any helped would be greatly appreciated. i do not need navigation but i do want a full screen.

also if anyone is looking to sell theirs i'm interested in buying.
please and thanks!!

The double dins aren't a fully direct fit. Some minor cutting is needed to something in the dash behind the radio bezel. Plus you'll need a interface module which isn't all that cheap

what about looking at OEM head units. the ones that come in the models of the truck?

better models of the truck i meant

Those fit. But are way more expensive. Another post just popped up and someone said they just put a after market radio in their express model truck without a interface. So that's good news

I think as long as you don't have any factory amps you don't need an interface.

But I had to pretty much cut all the metal behind my dash to get the radio to fit.

Honestly I've had to cut dashes in a few vehicles to make double dins fit. If you take your time and cut small amounts till it fits the way you want it to there shouldn't be a problem doing this.
