If you’re talking about the dashboard bezel? It’s the exact size as the 8.4. Unless you have an older model charger that has that small radio the you would need to swap to the 15-23 model radio bezel.
@@AlejandroGomez-ql3cmI have a 2019 Dodge Charger SXT and the radio came out a 2018 Dodge ram. You can find a compatible 8.4 Uconnect on eBay, offer up and FB marketplace you will definitely save money going that route unless you want one from the dealership I think the Uconnect from the dealer start off anywhere from 1k
Hello brotha, Did you have to take it to the dealership for the uconnect upgrade? Or if you have a tazer z you don’t need to? Because i have the tazer z but i want to replace my screen to a 8.4 for a future project.
Question do you know if the telematics module not working effect the backup camera not to work and uconnect system. For example say I upgrade the radio will i still need to replace the telematics module in order for my uconnect to work? And if i change the radio will it remove my beats or will it still pop out?
Not really sure on the telematics module but from what I’ve seen on UA-cam and my experience swapping out my Uconnect it was a direct plug and play! Everything works from Xm radio, car play, back up camera and etc also not sure what u mean by beats? But again it should be direct plug and play especially using an OEM radio! Here another thing my old radio didn’t have the navigation option and my new radio came with navigation so now I have an onboard navigation fully functioning!! Hopefully this information helps you!!
@@CaliStreetsCarsMods my car came with the beats audio system. But the thing is the telematics module that controls my uconnect gave out and my uconnect wont work anymore due to that. So i was thinking of any possible way i can switch the radio to a radio that already comes with uconnect without needing the telematics module to work. The dam telematics module is like 6 something so that in like a year or two gives out again and being stuck paying another 640. So thats why im asking if its just better to purchase a new radio screen that already comes with the uconnect.
@@J.cuevas215 Dodge came out with a Uconnect upgraded starting in 2018-to now. Like if you’ve seen my current radio is the upgraded one! So basically anything like 2011-2018 have to older version Uconnect.
@@ijamorris Yo can look it up by part number but you would need to make sure they match up with a challenger any year should be fine just contact your local dealer. But usually all them are the same from charger, challenger, Chrysler, jeep and Durango. I would just look for any 8.4 Uconnect 2018 or newer because those are the newer upgraded screens Dodge started producing in 2018. I would just look on eBay or fb marketplace. I also found mine on offer up and it came from a 2018 Dodge ram!
For the themes selection, does it also have the option to set it to the original theme like the one on the 7” UConnect? I’m trying to upgrade my Uconnect soon.
2019 Dodge Charger!! Everything is working as it should, didn’t really have to wait for anything to update because everything sync up after 5 mins of installing it and all the APPs work even my user manual for my vehicle and year are actually showing on the new uconnect screen. Also just purchased a tazer to unlock the remaining hidden features so stay tuned for the video.
Well I’ve seen other videos and they have mentioned after unplugging the battery to wait anywhere from 30min-1 Hour so I decided to do 2 hours to be safe.
@@CaliStreetsCarsModswhat’s the model number and stuff on it because I see some saying it has CarPlay but the model is VP4 so I just wanna buy the right one
@@El_wofersdon’t have the model number or part number but you have to read description when purchasing the Uconnect it should say if it comes with car play or not.
I got my Uconnect from offer up for $50 just got lucky because there was a chance that the screen might not work but as you see in the video once I plugged it in my car everything worked fine. Yea but look at offer up, facebook marketplace and eBay you might find a deal.
@Icey-mj3lw I definitely got lucky on that. But yea that is around the price for a good one. You can find them on eBay, fb marketplace or offer up anywhere from $300-$500 just keep looking. I literally was about to buy one from eBay for like $500 but I just kept looking around and having patience and found that deal!!
Sorry for the late response. But if you can’t figure out why it’s still dimming, then you might want to replace the LCD screen and see if that solves the problem.
Couldn’t pass it up was only $60 bucks and a brand new screen is only $200 which I can replace myself and I rather go with the tazer any way for the features so if you do the math I’m like at $500 still better deal I say!!
why would he give it up for 60$ and a good new screen is around 300$ that won’t leak glue look into it man I’m not tryna criticize you I just my ins and outs about uconnect’s
@@chase_playz8238 i appreciate the feedback he just gave me a good deal on it because it wasn’t working on his dodge ram but it’s still oem on the screen and if it does leak I can buy a new LCD and switch out the screen. I almost bought a few different ones but i just waited until I found the best deal hey it probably was meant to be everything happens for a reason.
guess so but I see your already even switch brackets out man idk seems like your putting a lot of money into something you could of bought perfectly fine but all love
damn man idk what you payed for that but very scratched should of bought mine g I told you ,you get what you pay for mine was priced at 850 no scratches with screen protector and had the super track pack already on it
you where talking me on offer up the one day saying you was saving up but said you wanted to make sure it works which in all the pictures I posted it works just didn’t wanna reinstall it into my car just to show you

Yes you would still have SRT pages. But it wont be like the upgraded radios. I recommend getting a radio 2018 and up so you can have the upgraded one!

How long has it been since you installed it? You might want to give it a few days it most likely will register!!

Just stock speakers that came with the car.
Where did you buy this from plss
