Hello all, I just purchased a new 2009 Journey this past Saturday and bought it off the lot. It came with the standard radio but no Mygig. The sales person offered it as an add-on at the time, but sadly my wife was convinced I didn't need it. So we didn't get it. After a couple of days, I convinced HER how much SHE would like it and she told me to go ahead and get it.
Happily I went back to the dealer and said I wanted to purchase the MyGig with Navigation. I was directed to the parts department and to my horror was told the it was NOT AVAILABLE as an option to add on / or replace the existing radio. That it is only available as an option when the vehicle is ordered direct from the factory.
I have tried to research a little on this and need to confirm the following , that the new MyGig system with Navigation (REU) IS the screen which is at the top of the dash and IS NOT touch screen and is NOT available as a kit to install.
I also found that the MyGig (RER) is a direct replacement for my radio with a touch screen and that it includes the MyGig system with Navigation and works with the back up camera. I however have found no part number for this.
Do any of you know which part number to use to get the MyGig system with Navigation as an add-on to a vehicle which did not come with it. Also, have any of you had it installed after the purchase of the vehicle?
Any help is GREATLY appreciated. I need to get it installed before my wife CHANGES her mind!!
Thanks.
