You should be able to ID it by utilizing the owner's manual also.

My truck didn't come with one, but I do recall someone put up a link a while back to all of them online.

I would like to replace my whole system...I like my tunes. It's a shame they have those round cut-outs in that bezel. I haven't researched yet to see if anyone makes a new bezel. Or if I have the 4-speaker or 7-speaker setup.

My wife's new 2010 Jeep Grand Cherokee Limited came with the MyGig unit and it's sweet.....been thinking about doing the conversion on the Mega. A few guys on another site have done it; I can post a link if you're interested.



am/fm/cd/HDD/dvd player/NAVI....the hard drive stores about 4,000 songs ????

I am still considering doing the factory navigation unit for my dodge.. either that, or just going aftermarket, but I think the factory nav would look sooo much better.

The factory bezel that is used with the factory navigation unit does not have the round cutouts for '06 and up.

Can anyone with a 2006/2007/2008/2009 3rd GEN factory NAVI unit supply me the dimensions of the opening ? I *think* the MyGig unit might be a slightly different size.........
