I installed it. It was a whirlwind week of new carpet, sound deadening, the newer seats & console, Grant wheel, backup cam and power tailgate lock.
Only two issues I ran into were figuring out what wire and where to cut it to enable steering wheel controls and setting up the camera. Could not for the life of me find a reverse wire that worked to switch it over. I instead opted to have cam on demand, this allows me to look behind me whenever I want with the push of a button. This is especially nice for long distance towing and I wanna check on the hitch & trailer (mainly for the boat).
Camera plugs right in once you route the cable up behind the dash. There are 2 MiniSD card slots in it, only comes with the one for the their native nav app (which isn't bad, I use it most times, especially if I'm somewhere without cell signal). The other slot is empty and you have to supply your own if you want to put music or videos, etc on it. It is an Android OS so it works just like any Android phone or tablet. For the most part you can customize it however you like. I park close enough to the house that it picks up the WiFi signal and updates the apps. I have loved this thing (even with the initial expense, though I bought it on Amazon and had a bunch of gift cards that came in handy lol) since I put it in. Insane Audio offered me a significant discount on a trade-in for the newer model but honestly I can't justify the expense for a slightly faster processor and a mm or 2 of screen lol. Here is the nav screen, I chose the tank but I think you can install custom icons if you wish (I had the ass end of an SRT-10 on my old TomTom). I have the left steering wheel button (the middle between track up & down) set to cycle through modes, so it goes from radio to bluetooth music to SD music player to nav.

it’s sounding better and better to me ! Once I find the short in my system , which I’m thinking is in the connection from the body thru the drivers door to the speaker .. at least that is what I have been looking to do after finding those ares are problematic on Dodge rams for wires breaking . Hoping it’s not caused by the factory AMP !
Not sure I would bother with cameras , but another SD card would work fine . Your system appears to have a lot more capability than the factory one .
The install is more than clean enough to look factory !
I know over the years that systems people were installing had no way to connect the steering wheel controls and had to usually modify or by a modified bezel . Exactly what wire did you finally determine was the proper one for the steering wheel connection ?
Yes ,the price is up there but appears to me to be the best upgrade and least modification to make .. Do you have any of those gift cards you want to gift to a charity
