I’m wanting to know the same thing! I’m pretty sure it’s a direct swap if we find a non nav 8.4
Nice deal I was looking during lunch and it looked like it''d be a grand or so (600.00 for the module, 300 for the screen and 150ish for the new bezel) I'll have to keep a lookout for a take off. It almost looked cheaper to go over to 12.1 with some of the take offs that were listed on Ebay.
Looks good brother. I've been frustrated with the limited upgraded or afternarket radio options. Now I know the direction I'll take. Thanks for the steering wheel facts too. I'd like to have the radio buttons behind the wheel, but I cant find just the buttons with wiring. I'll prob just swap steering wheels and be done with it. The wife would like the heated steering wheel when she drives her!So just wanted to give you guys the updated pictures after I received the new bezel today. Everything works perfectly. Next step I'm going to ask the dealership if they can load the app to control the heated steering wheel from the screen. Let me know what you guys think.
Looks good! Did you get the parts off Ebay? Do you have a part number for the bezel?So just wanted to give you guys the updated pictures after I received the new bezel today. Everything works perfectly. Next step I'm going to ask the dealership if they can load the app to control the heated steering wheel from the screen. Let me know what you guys think.
I have the same truck. I agree, could you provide part numbers for what you bought and where? I hate the 5.0.So just some background on what kind of truck I have. I have a base model tradesman with the upgraded seat package. Nothing fancy. I already replaced the original steering wheel with one out of a rebal. That was a direct swap and all the buttons work. The only thing I havent tried is the heat function. So i received the 8.4 yesterday and completed the installation. Everything was plug and play. The only thing that wasnt plug and play is the temperature controls. My tradesman doesnt have dual climate and the one I bought did. So I used my original cluster with the screen until my new one comes in. So besides that everything works. Just make sure if your buying one second hand that you get the VIN number from the truck it came off originally. You will need that along with the serial number on the Navi to get the anitheft code from the dealership. I'll post pics once my new temp cluster comes in. Hope this helps some others!
