I have been stereo shopping for the last couple of weeks. I'm not sure what year Dodge started it, but my truck definitely has a CANbus system and thus requires two modules (about $80 each) to connect to the factory wiring. One is to turn on the factory amplifier and the other is to interface with steering wheel controls. Even if you don't want steering wheel controls, there is still another module you have to have...which seems odd to me.

Now, I was planning a complete upgrade until I saw pricing on the HU's. And I cannot believe the pricing discrepancy for the same exact HU between sellers. The main one being Crutchfield...they are $500 more than the best price I've found. If what Patrick says is true, I will call Crutchfield for a price match, because I have bought a few stereos/CD changers from them and their tech support is second to none in my opinion.
