Florez1211 Posted October 15, 2014 Report Share Posted October 15, 2014 Hello everyone, this is my first time posting. After looking for a long time about upgrading my display I finally decided to join the forum and ask questions I haven't seen yet. I currently have a 2011 crew Fwd with the 8.4 only with the Sirius radio (no nav and no uconnect) I want to get the nav installed but want to know if I can just purchase a new display (from a scrap yard) and install myself without having to do anything else? Is there something I need to do or add? Thanks for any response. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Johnson Posted October 15, 2014 Report Share Posted October 15, 2014 Hi Florez, no you wouldnt be able to do that. You would need to change the reciever out to gain nav. I don't know for sure if youd have to change out the display though. Perhaps someone else can chime in on that. If you buy a receiver newer than 2011 you will need the VIN of the car it came from, the new radio serial info, and your dealer will have to unlock it. Pre-2012 doesn't require this. Also know that different model year display colors are different and even the graphics are different. To some that matters.... I'm planning on upgrading from a 4.3 to an re2 this weekend so I'm right there with you. This is a very helpful forum, good luck! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Johnson Posted October 18, 2014 Report Share Posted October 18, 2014 Do you mean upgrade from 4.3 to 8.4 yes, that is my plan. The RE2 is the receiver for the 8.4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
