I just installed a jensen vm9214 in my '98 ram. I picked that one that one so I can control my iphone with it and it has a little screen on the front so when it's closed it looks like a cheap "normal" radio.

I just installed the JVC in my 2006, and it awesome, the gps on in rocks, it has a decent size screen and the audio is terrific. I say go for it. My stereo shop did a great job and it looks stock. I replaced the factory gps unit with it.

If you want to get a Double DIN head unit i can modify your bezel to fit it. I have done lot of them for guys on many different sites. I have pics of some in the gallery signature link below

^^^^ 02-05 will not fit double DIN navigational units as the bezel will not fit it. Thats why you have to have one custom modified to fit one. 06-08 trucks though can get a OEM Navi bezel.
