How to: Upgrade Uconnect 4 to Uconnect 5

[Waterfowler41]

Here’s a walkthrough of how I retrofitted the Uconnect 5 system into my truck that came with Uconnect 4 from the factory.

Overall it was an easy upgrade and took all of about 45 minutes to knock out.

What were you talking about at the end of the video regarding the phone charger having more output?

Would it be cheaper to buy the parts separately and program with Alfa OBD? Or do I need to buy the kit?

Great video!
Do you get the OTA UC5 updates after the swap or do you have to install them manually?

He was talking about the Mag safe mount from Apple he was going to use instead of the factory charging.
