... I would highly recommend it for anyone looking, it not only is highly functional but it adds a wee bit of definition in the lines on the back and looks great.

Unfortunately the bumper has changed. I have both a 2010 and a 2012 R/T.

Here is a page that has a picture of the rear on the 2012 http://blog.caranddriver.com/2011-dodge-journey-receives-face-lift-pentastar-v6-revised-interior/ - compare to the pic on ebay and you'll notice the bevel is much smaller and less pronounced (it does not sweep around the corner of the car) on the 2012.

Sherwood has stated to me that their German manufacturer should be releasing an updated protector around the end of the summer (just in time for hockey bag season)...

Looks like Autoxtreme is gone (web page not functional) but I'd imagine there will be others out there selling the same thing.

Excellent photos.

I have a 2011 Lux with the 8.4 touchscreen system (and a sunroof, too). The rear entertainment package is not available on the 2011's, so I'm looking forward to seeing how others have addressed this issue. The kids would love to have either an overhead screen or screens in the headrests, but I have yet to see anyone tackle this in a 2011.

For now, they'll just have to settle with their portable DVD players than can sling over the seats...

Given the choice, go for the headrest install. The overhead screen seriously impedes your ability to see out the back window.

i really hate the fact that you cant input a address in the gps when in motion weather you are the passenger or the driver as soon as i get a wiring diagram for the U-connect that crap will be removed...

You know what I wish is that the key receptacle was lit the way the coffee holders are - I fumble to get the fob into the socket constantly!

s.foy it sounds like you got for your wife what I got for mine. We replaced a SWB Caravan with it and the storage in back when you remove the false floor is what sold us.

There's some trim stuff at autoxtreme.com

nice side chrome trim :D

Rear bumper protector is totally worth it. I ordered from autoxtreme.com. I'm in the GTA as well. See my gallery pics.

Put it on the red R/T and it not only protects the bumper from repeated haulings of the hockey bags but also adds visual definition to the rear which I like.

Once I've done one more mod I'll post up.

Thanks.

Would the factory install be like this or would they be drawing power for the camera closer to the reversing lights (ie in the rear door)? I know the instructions for the lockpick specifically want you to disconnect / reconnect right at the camera but if the power wire is already forward, why not try to repurpose it?

In North America we have the emergency brake in pedal form for the left foot, no room for a dead pedal. (I think you Euros and Brits have the hand brake)

Now that it's been a year, how do these things hold up? Was the extra tape necessary?

Hi

I was hoping to find some pictures of how people might have wired up a rear view camera to their lockpick. I'm a bit leery of pulling panels off without knowing what I'm doing. I have the REU system and rear camera already factory installed.

How do you get it to download the contacts? How long should it take, first time? I've paired the phone (3GS os 3.1.3 iirc) with the most up-to-date REU system and it has no contacts in the uconnect list.
