From what the dealer said, the 8.4 won't be available until later on... Apparently they are still behind from the Japan disaster.

There is easily enough room to get your hand to undo the little bulb holder inside the hood. No need to unscrew or move anything in the engine compartment

If it fits, post back with a pic if at all possible:)

Sorry, I misunderstood your last post, that had sherwood included in where you checked at, and misread that they needed the part information. Sorry for the confusion. What would be interesting to note - According to their eBay store, the black doesn't fit the 2011, but the silver one does fit the 2011? Were they able to confirm the silver one works for 2011's? I would think with that information they may be able to spec it out?

Though the sticker says incandescent, I confirmed myself that they still had the LED's same as the 2011's... I noticed that as well looking at the sticker, and checked, but sure enough, it was LED taillights.

Here's a direct link to the product page on autoxclusive (which is a division of Sherwood Automotive). BLack: http://www.autoxclusive.com/xclusiveshop/product_info.php?products_id=441 Silver: http://www.autoxclusive.com/xclusiveshop/product_info.php?products_id=440

Note - the Hood Protection isn't the bug deflector... It didn't come with one (and the none of the ones on the lot come with them either). My only guess is that it is some kind of plastic shield or something that was on there, but I didn't really notice that either... But I didn't look too closely at it. There didn't appear to be any dealer installed accessories other than was was mentioned under the Northern Package unfortunately.

@drb227 - Thanks - For some reason I was thinking the VC was only a $200 correction. I think I confused it with the Booster Seat option. And yeah - the "Northern Package" is a rip... Mine came with it, but I was able to get them to drop it from the price when I bought my 2011.... The interesting this is the 2012 shown here doesn't have tire and rim protection that was included when I bought mine... The tire and rim protection was a part of the 2011 Northern Package and covers any damage that happens on a public street to the tires/rims for 5 years... So if I hit a curb or something, they will replace the rim/tire. I imagine with the 19" tires, they discontinued offering it due to the price it would cost to fix/replace tires and rims. It's intersting that ti says Incandescent stop/tail lamp, I looked at the tail lamps, and they were LED same as the 2011's. @Greer - I didn't notice any difference in the tires to be honest.

Your best bet would be to call your local dealer, otherwise it might just be faster to get a flash drive. You can get a small flash drive for <$10 now from BestBuy, Walmart, etc.

Hey @drozz - Yes, you can drop down to 16's... They would need to be OEM (or OEM Spec) in order to clear the calipers. There are a few users including myself that have 16's for the Journey. The base model Journey comes with 16" rims. You can also use 16" rims from a grand caravan.

So I had my Journey in today for a service, and was walking around the lot... And I found a couple 2012 Journey's there... I didn't take a picture of the Journey itself. It appears to be identical to the 2011 with the new fascia. One thing I noticed, it did have the VC and BT, and also only the 4.3 screen which was to be expected. The model I saw was an R/T AWD, but was not very well equipped. No sun roof, no backup camera, etc. There were a couple price changes... the VC&BT option is now $300. The Chrome clad wheels are now $600. So from what it appears, there really isn't any change from 2011 to 2012. Attached is the window sticker of the R/T. I apologize for the reflection. Was actually a sunny day and was hard to get a decent picture.

That's the harness that I have for my 2011 R/T Hope it helps

When you say the German one, are you talking about the one that I believe is available through AutoXclusive? I thought that was made to fit the Journey, so I am a little surprised it didn't fit. I believe a few other users have used it on their Journey. Could you elaborate on what part didn't fit correctly? or what it looked like? I was strongly considering getting it for my Journey, but am a little hesitant with your post that it doesn't fit correctly.

The part number for it included on the instruction booklet is: 68080978AA. The part number on the sticker on the harness itself is: 68080977AC. This is the connector that has the 4 point connector on it... Is that what you were looking for?

Caravan rims will fit the Journey. 17's will fit very comfortably.

Yep... It was starting to get really annoying... I'm one of those people that if I notice something wrong, I'll keep seeing it forever until it's fixed lol. I think I might have OCD LOL

So the washer trick worked for a while, but eventually stopped working. I went to the hardware store today and picked up one of those dual tubes of epoxy and used that... I epoxied it where the clip connects to the bumper, and also on the top as well. Seems to be holding up well so far, and looks perfect so far... Will be interesting to see how it holds up to the weathering...

Awesome! Glad to hear you got it, and everything is good so far!

I don't believe there is a limit as far as I know. Connecting my iPhone via USB sees all the songs, and I believe there are others who use a USB stick and it sees all their songs as well.

eBay has them for ~125 plus shipping.

The express and SE in Canada are both 4 cylinders.

Just out of curiosity, what made you decide to go with 18s? I know many (including myself) decided to go with 16s or 17s to help with the pricing. The 18's do look good on your Journey!

If the difference in price between the 2 models is only $1200, I'd probably just go with the SE. The roof rack rails are handy. Even if you don't plan to use them right now, there may be a time in the future that you do. The tinted windows are also a nice touch. And above that, you'll also get the cargo cover that you're looking for.

Unfortunately a lot of dealers were misinformed about uConnect and what it actually includes. For the Journey, all uConnect refers to is the touchscreen... Whether it be the 4.3 or the 8.4... It was very poorly worded when it came out and the VC and BT was an extra $200 add on. From everything I understand there is no current way to get VC and BT if it didn't come with it from the factory unfortunately. I have also heard from my dealer (correct or not) that the Mopar bluetooth isn't even compatible with the new uConnect setup in the 2011's.

THanks @DodgeCares!
