08 GC 130 upgrade to 430
Hey All,
Just purchased an 08 Grand Caravan SXT..(It's actually still at the dealer getting some electrical issues fixed)...It has a 130 stereo..and I'm pretty sure it doesn't have uConnect (no buttons on steering wheel, and when I hit the phone icon on the stereo it says not enabled)...It does have Sirius radio though however!
If I want to upgrade to a 430...mainly because it has touchscreen and I can eventually add dvd to the backseat & backup camera..can I just purchase a 430 and plug-n-play? Or would it be a complicated pita changing wiring harnesses & etc?
Let me know!
Thanks gang for your help!

I believe mostly plug and play although I forget what our vehicles are high or low bus system. that makes a difference. also the options like rear ves and such have to be programmed by dealer. also might not be equipped with the wiring harnesses in the vehicle too.
