Where to buy 12" Uconnect 5 Screen

Hey fellas, I am new around here and I am fully prepared to take verbal abuse for unintentionally posting in the wrong area!

I am looking for a lead as to where I can purchase a 12" Uconnect 5 screen. I have looked everywhere with no luck.

I have AlphaOBD ready to rip, I can find a bezel easy enough (but also looking for a lead as to where I can buy a new bezel, not used), and want to get a 12" in my rig!

I have an 8" nav Uconnect 5 screen, and I am willing to add cash if anyone was looking to swap their 12" for whatever reason.

*I drove a chevy duramax my whole life, and I feel cheated that I only recently discovered my dream vehicle (The 22' Power Wagon) I have had this for about 2 weeks, and I am hooked. Favorite truck by far, no competition! Looking forward to sharing and building my power wagon with the expertise here! Aiming for a 1000HP build! (a guy can dream right?)
 
Im planning to do the same. The only place right now is thru the Mopar warehouses online. Keep in mind that you will have to switch out the radio module also. That's another $800 part also and then a custom cable needed for the 12.1. (a forum member makes them for us) From what I read, the radio modules between the 8.4 screens and the 12.1 screens are different. IIRC, some features are different between the two. So it not just a matter of switching screens. Its alot more involved. Also, since you have a 2022, you can not use a pre 2021 screens using UC4. Our model years are not backward compatible due to the UC5.

He has a 2022 8.4” with nav, so he already has the correct UC5 radio module. In his case, it actually is just a screen/bezel swap, and a few changes with AlfaOBD.
 
Ah..sorry for the confusion...so in my case, do I need or don't need a new radio module since I have an 8.4 no nav?

Your non nav radio is a one piece unit, that’s why you need the screen, separate radio module, conversion cable, and LVDS cable that links the screen to the module.

Would you happen to have a link to a particular moose warehouse with these in stock?

Hi Jimmy, I have a lead on a 12.1 screen from a UC4 truck. I currently have a 2022 UC5 8.4 screen. Will the UC4 screen work or do I need to source a screen from a 2022+?

No particular link. You have to try everyone. I'd recommend mopar sites. I bought some UC5 parts off ebay and the 12 display is a little wonky. Well, one of the button's bad. The radio module I also got from ebay is going bad. It's show radio needs service. It works fine, just that error pops up when I start the truck. Not sure if it's software related. If anyone has a link to the current software please post it.

You can't use UC4 parts on a UC5 vehicle. They are incompatible.
