I just bought a 2007 Durango SLT with a factory 6-CD changer radio RAQ and with the Alpine sound system and steering wheel controls. I don't use CD's, so I would rather have an AUX port radio so I can plug my mp3 player in.

Can I simply swap out the Dodge RAQ radio for a Dodge REF radio? I see the Dodge REF radios for sale on eBay from several different sources. From looking at the pictures online, it appears the connectors are the same. Is is that simple or am I missing something?

 

I would look at or get pictures of the back of the head unit to see what the plugs look like and go from there.

other options are to add a FM modulator

 

Thanks for the reply. The Commander-in-Chief, aka the wife, decided she likes the CD changer.

I am going to add an aux jack via an auxiliary input kit from Logjam.

I installed the Logjam aux kit today. Pretty simple install. Now when I press the Mode button on the radio it cycles to the DVD mode for the rear seat entertainment system. That mode did not appear before. And that is the mode from where I can now play my Sansa mp3 player and my kid's iPod.
