Did you start off with a Mygig or did you just cut the stock radio bezel yourself?? because i noticed you didnt buy one in your price list...

I'm thinking of doing this upgrade myself. Im sick and tired of the small 3.5 inch magellan gps I have. I dont think im going to go with the Mygig...chances are I'm going to end up with this Pioneer cheapo that I found one local place for $329.

So am I going to need a new navigation bezel ($100 ebay) and a double din navigation mount($25) to install this baby? I've got the stock single cd radio in my '08 right now.

 

sorry, the pioneer i posted up doesnt have gps...but I know theres one that looks similiar for around that price at a local radio shop.

 

I haven't had any shut offs or glitches yet. The first screen freezes up if you get finger happy, but otherwise, no problems in 3 months.
Pioneer does have a 2.0 firmware update for the lagging uploading. The dvd/navi while driving is easy in both firmware and mechanical wiring to make that modification.

 

i did cut it out my self. i had the same radio as you in. i did not buy the nav mount i just put it in and it fit.

 

this is were i got all my info:

Does the clock keep accurate time on your mygig? I had read that the '07 and later handle time keeping differently.

 

yes it does keep accurate time. they fixed that with the lock pick

 

So this could work even if I have the basic AM/FM/CD set up? I wanted to do this but with Navigation.

 

what year truck to u have? Do u have sat radio/want it? My truck had the am/fm sat radio with the cd player. Every thing has bin working with no problems

 

Sorry about that. I have a 2008 Ram 1500 Quad. I do have Sat radio but only have the basic 4 speaker system. Can this stilll be done? Thank you for your time.
