Man I'm so grateful for this video. I've searched so many times to see if I could swap my factory 4.3 radio unit for a larger double din and you not only proved I could but also step by step showed me how. Thank you so much!
Great video. Not doing the swap but need to remove these parts for customizing. This may be old news as this is a few years old and I did not go back to read all the comments. I don't think it was a spirited drive the knocked out the missing clip as it appears to be on the floor in the video from about 4:00 - 4:16 ish lol. Great information, Thx!
Very nicely done, i been wanting to upgrade mines, thats the reason i settled with an SE, cause i heard it can be upgraded, ive called dodge and mopar, about it, they keep tellin me it cant be done...but i seen your vid, so i plan on buying an radio from ebay, any specific one i should get? RE2? RB5?? i have an 2014 charger.
I just bought a new 2014 Charger and I've been checking out your channel for some great install tips. You're videos have been super helpful! Thanks for taking the time to share! Questions for you; when you installed the factory nav unit, did you save the old bezel for the dash? If so, can I buy that off of you?? I'm considering attempting an in-dash iPad install and I'd like to have an extra bezel incase I royally screw it up. Let me know, and keep making awesome videos. Your a champ!
no issues with anything climatic. the hard buttons work, and the touch screen buttons work too. but thats because i have the dual zone auto-climate package on my car.
Its a feature that gives u gas prices nearby , movie listings, weather updates maybe animated. Its called sirius Xm travel link. My nav says the same thing from time to time "traffic ahead "
i dont know what that is. what i do know, is my sirius/xm now has some traffic thingy working. sometimes when im driving the radio will turn down and a voice will say "traffic ahead". but its mostly useless, and i never see the traffic they are mentioning anyway.
This video has inspired me to upgrade my 09 Challengers stock radio with the Nav one for no real good reason..my only issue is i want the latest one that does bluetooth audio...still researching...
I watched your vid a while back and did the upgrade ! It turned out awesome!. I just did another upgrade tho and was wondering if you had any advice. Got a metra kit and installed a double din as well but lost the use of the 8.4. Any help?
I was wondering if you knew of anywhere that I can purchase this kit now. I went on amazon from your description and they don't have any available. I have been looking everywhere. I was so excited by your video but now I can't find the kit :(
no, its pretty hard to find now. i couldnt even find it on ebay today. you can buy it all separately, new from dealer, but you'll prob be over $2000...
i have a 2013 R/T and I have the 8.5 screen but no Navigation...im looking at the product on ebay from your description and it says that my car is not compatible. I was just wondering if you had the same issue when u ordered yours...thanks
Very interesting, I have the police one which is basically and SE, I was wondering if I could do this upgrade buy pulling a system from another stock charger like an RT with the 8.4 system as well as Bluetooth, do you think it would work? Also is it possible to add the necessary buttons on the steering wheel controls ?
hi, I'm looking a buy a Dodge charger police pursuit and I wanted to know if it is possible to swap the gear shifter from column to floor? and how are you liking the car? is it worth it?
Yes it is possible, I would only do it if you buy an old shit one in the hundreds of dollars range. You are also going to need another scrap car to pull the transmission and gear box out of. There are a few forum posts out there of some guys who have done it. There is very little info out there on how to go about it, so you will run in to some challenges
Quick question : does ur charger rb5 support seriusXM travel link? I didn't notice the " + " icon on the lower right corner just the "wrench" settings . I just did the rb5 swap on my '13 dart and I do not have travel link available. Xm shows I'm subscribed but I can't get the icon on the screen.
Hi i would like to buy a 2013 sxt charger... I found on youtube some issues on fob leyless entry and start button. As if they dont comunicate together. My question is did u have any problems ??if so how dod u fix it Thank you.
will that new radio fit in a 2012 charger? where did you purchase the radio and does it require anyting extra? i am wanting to replace my radio. thanks.
Does the factory Super Bee model (the one with the smaller display like yours, not the 2014 one that got changed due to government back-up camera regulation), have UConnect? I CANNOT find how to access it at all.
@@LastHumansGarage I guess I'm not missing anything, I don't even know what it really is. I wanted to try it out, but I guess whatever network it runs on was decommissioned and the old systems don't work without some update, so I'm not going to bother.
@@pdizso do you use usb aux in order to play ur music? I use to have a 2014 srt8 but I might get a superbee. Main concern is going to the 4.3 radio seems like a huge deal considering I won't be able to check my temps n stuff anymore convently. Also do the 2012s 6.4s with 4.3 still have sport ?
HEY GREAT VIDEO. I just 2014 charger se with the connectivity package. My problem is i have a lot of background static on the FM radio. Everything else like bluetooth amd Aux cd ipod all sound fine only fm sounds nasty surprisingly the AM sounds crystal clear. I have been on countless forums trying to fix this. Is there anything you can recommend me doing besides taking to the dealer since they always come out with unable to replicate problem. Would switching the am to fm antennas in the back work. Any info would help Greatly. THANKS A MILLION.
its all bluetooth.if ur phone is hooked up to ur car (radio) by bluetooth you can have calls and/or text messages go straight to your screen.if u get a call itll pop up on ur screen and mute ur music if its playing.u can accept or deny the call just like a phone.if u accept then EVERYBODY in the car will hear your convo as ALL the speakers in ur car (even the rear window) will have whoevers talking come out. get it? ur car has a mic already u just drive and talk and they will hear you
do u know of any website where i can buy a real carbon fiber dash kit, mainly the 2 pieces u had to take off, the piece around the screen and around the shifter I've been looking for a while and havent found any
Brother i been thinking on changing my radio and now that i know I can, ill do it but i dont know where i can get the radio, do u have a website where i can buy the radio?
i think it would work which people said. but i would have had to buy the whole kit and harness front to back and everything. and probably have to go to the dealer to have it coded too.
Hey I was planning on purchasing from Steve white motors as well, My charger is a 2012 will it still work on mine? Did u need to get any additional wiring or was it plug and play?? Also did you install a backup camera because i plan on doing so?
i upgraded my 2013 charger SE to that screen. My question is, before i didnt have bluetooth and now with this screen that works fine and all but i dont have bluetooth. Is it that i also need the bluetooth module thats located under the steer column?
Is the code u put in just for screen or the head unit? I found a head unit and bezel from a charger but I can get the 8.4 inch screen by itself from someone else. I'm trying to upgrade my 4.2 inch screen from my dodge charger SE
I buy the screen 8.4” but only get on but after a few seconds the image get on black do I need to buy to buy the another part u change to get image on the screen ?
i did the same thing on my 2012 super bee and i even add the backing camera to it but the thing i didnt like is that my animated super bee from the dash was gone and now it only shows the srt sign
no, it doesnt work like that. if you didnt get the performance pages to begin with, you won't have them after the new screen either. (but some special edition chargers did come with the SRT performance pages.)
Can I Ask where you purchased your radio from (direct site or company? Im gonna purchase the super bee 2013 model and im gonna change out that small radio as well.
Hey, do I need to match the part numbers if I buy a used part from another car ? Btw I have 2012 Dodge Charger Sxt plus with Bluetooth and satellite radio

LastHumansGarage, I have a 2012 Charger SE without the auto climate controls. Im gonna try to upgrade but I know I most likely will not be able to use the auto climate feature.

I can't find the dash replacement anywhere
Where can I order this whole kit from ?
Wtfff a superbee comes w the small screen stock???
Hey were did you buy and the parts for this
Is the rear view camera compatible to be added to the RB5?
Its a feature that gives u gas prices nearby , movie listings, weather updates maybe animated. Its called sirius Xm travel link. My nav says the same thing from time to time "traffic ahead "
Why did you switch out the deck? Do you have too if your switching the touch screens?
Can you use the same harness from the 4.3 on the 8 inch screen?
Did you get a copy-write notice for the speaker comparison?
I did the upgrade , everything works but the Navigation. it say acquiring satellite. what do I need to do
They have a special navigating harness I think
Does anybody have a link for this?
Can I do this to my 2013 Dodge Charger se
LastHumansGarage what he said..
+Bernard Bolton yea
Do I need to change the climate also or can I just change the screen itself
did you have to give steve white motor yo vin to see if you car would work with the upgrade
so the question is did the 4.3 have Sat. radio cause this video doesnt show him putting the antenna on the roof for Sat. or Nav.?
Yes I had satellite already. Plus the satellite antenna
I wonder what that Magnet is for on the dash bezel?
i dont know what that is. what i do know, is my sirius/xm now has some traffic thingy working. sometimes when im driving the radio will turn down and a voice will say "traffic ahead". but its mostly useless, and i never see the traffic they are mentioning anyway.

What parts did you need to install the 8.4 Uconnect besides the actual 8.4 inch screen?
the head unit. the dash bezel.

hmm a dodge dealer
will this same method work on a 2012 superbee & rb5 8.4 the model# that works with the superbee & how much did everything cost
Do you have to change the bottom piece of the radio??
yes, i think so, this was a long time ago. but i dont think i had nav, so i changed my lower radio too.
I only see 2012 compatible on the eBay page you insisted. Did you use that ?
they're all the same 2011-2014 pretty much.
How positive on that are you I have a 2011 sxt and would like to know if this is compatible
Where did you get the new bezel for the bigger screen ?
the dealer
where did you buy the upgraded radio?
How about the back up camera does it work and could you get a factory back up camera installed if you don't have one?
i think it would work which people said. but i would have had to buy the whole kit and harness front to back and everything. and probably have to go to the dealer to have it coded too.

ya you'd need a bluetooth module at least..

the bottom deck controls the new screen. its the main part..
@@LastHumansGaragethank you i have all my parts ordered and am getting it done tuesday
why do you need to change the stereo also ?
because the mini radio cant handle the full screen output.

At what point in the video do you say where you bought it and price I didn't hear it at all
read the video details. its not in the video itself.
Can switching between 8.4 and stock small 4 inch screen on the bee will show u SRT options like HP meter and gforce etc?
no, it doesnt work like that. if you didnt get the performance pages to begin with, you won't have them after the new screen either. (but some special edition chargers did come with the SRT performance pages.)
