Default adding rbz/mopar camera?

I want to upgrade to an rbz radio in my 2010. Found some on ebay new for $375 shipped, Anyone ever buy from this seller? (http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/MyGig...item2a0d2de994) I believe this radio should just swap right out for the stock one without any other modifications? Also would like to add the mopar camera part #82211184. Anyone ever add this kit to an rbz?

Check if it has Satellite if you are looking for that.

I just bought and received a RBZ from the ebay member you mentioned. It does not have Satellite radio, which it states in the description. I installed it today, it took me about 10 minutes. It works great, I have not orderd the back up camera yet, but it should work fine. It is definitely worth $375 to me.

Daniel#88, did you install a satellite radio antenna? I think you have to install the antenna before the radio will show you have the satellite option.

Does anyone know if the wiring for the camera is already ran from the radio wire harness to the tailgate or does it have to be ran for the factory camera installation? If I just have to install the camera and hook it to the wiring it will be easy, if not I guess I will have the dealership do it.

No pre wiring, you have to install the all of it. Also, when you get it installed, the dealer will have to "turn it on" with the scan tool. The only way around this is if you get a Lock Pick or AllGiG.

Thanks for the link! I briefly read over the manual and it looks like a job for the dealership. Has anyone installed the factory back-up camera on their own? If so, how difficult was it?
