My Bighorn came with the 8.4 non nav, anyone know if a 8.4 nav with HD can be swapped out. I’ve done it in earlier Rams. Oh yea, it’s a 2022.

I have the same question. I have a 2022 Laramie 2500 with Uconnect 5.0 8.4 non-nav and would like to find out how to get the nav feature. Is the 5.0 8.4 non-nav actually a different unit than the navigation unti, or can you simply pay to activate the nav feature on the non-nav version?

Just researching on updating my 2022 RAM 5500 Non-Nav to try and get the 8.4" Nav installed. So far my research has shown that my connections are different then that of most forums and videos I see online. Most have a big black connection in the back of their screen that then gets connected to the NEW Radio Module... Mine has a bunch of small connections. Seeing if anyone has a lead on this upgrade? Thanks

I know on a 2018 it is a different radio for Nav. I inquired about it early on and that’s what the dealer told me. I am not sure about 2022

You’ll need 2 custom cables that I build to go from 8.4 non-nav to 8.4 nav UC5. PM me for details on those cables.

Thanks for that info jimmy. Is it just the radio we need to purchase or do we need a module as well , plus your cables. Where is the best place to purchase a UC 5 nav radio from?
