I suppose that you could pair a phone to be used as the phone, and connect another phone via the USB or AUX for music.  I think this was what jkeaton is saying.  When I plug my iPhone6s into the USB, it shows up as iPod on the input device.  I think that you can pair up to 6 phones, but only 1 has priority:  to send and receive calls.  I bought a 2 USB input that I plugged into the power port under the dash.  So, when I'm using my phone for Nav, I plug it in there to charge the phone.

I had no idea that you could override the system by trying to lock it 3x with the Fob inside.  I thought that it was impossible to do this.  BTW, I feel your pain trying to live off of VA Disability checks.  I have an appeal that I have been waiting on for 5 years.  I think that the VA is hoping I die so they don't have to pay.

Not a fan of having to look down at the Nav screen.  The vent mount I use puts it at eye level, so I don't have to take my eyes off of the road.

No.  You have to tell the BIB (bitch in box) which phone now has priority.  It will not change the priority just because you connect another phone.  As far as I know, you can not connect 2 phones at the same time:  one for phone, one for music streaming.  Only one phone has priority at a time.

Auto Lights back on yet?

Welcome to the forum.  The problem with the base radio is that it also controls functions that are not radio related.  There is a company that makes an replacement for these non radio functions, which will allow you to install an after market radio.  There is a thread on it in the audio section of the forum.  You will want to replace the crap paper speakers first.  This will improve the sound 100%.  Go to Best Buy and sample the speakers on the "sound wall".  I went with Alpine because they produced the best bass.  All of the speakers in the doors are 6x9.  You can change the dash speakers too.  I chose Alpine tweeters with a built in x-over.  I have a bunch of threads in the audio section pertaining to what I did to get the sound that I wanted.  Good luck.

I put one on my Nitro -  Jet Stage 1 + Mopar CAI.  Total waste of money, IMHO.

The 2-tone interior is awesome.  I purchased gray WeatherTech floor mats just to brighten up the interior.  All black with a light gray headliner.

Welcome to the forum.  Can you take a picture of the interior as I have never one two-tone?  Thanks

I'll be curious to see how the Plastidip holds up on the shifter.

What kind of paint did you use, and how did you prepare the surface?

I just keep the second row armrest/headrest down all the time.  I can see out the back fine, even with the third row headrests up!

On the Dodge Nitro they are located inside the "A" and "C" pillars.  May be the same on the DJ

There is a trough running around the perimeter.  The holes for the drains are located at the four corners.  Do not use compressed air as you run the risk of blowing the drain tubes off of the trough.  On the Nitro, they exited behind the front wheels and in front of the back wheels.  There is an odd looking piece of plastic on the ends of the tubes to create a vacuum to draw the water down the tubes.

Indiana ditched Common Core.  So, now I'm really screwed!

I was at 12,000 miles/2 years getting my oil changed last month.  Dealer told me cabin filter was dirty so I told them to put a new one in.  First change!

The system will only connect to one phone at a time.  You can connect up to 6 phones, but only one can be the primary.  You can change the priority whenever you want.

The Luck of the Irish!

I pray that these new radios will be able to work in our DJs.

Use Waze on your phone!

I have numerous threads concerning my sound system upgrade.  Search!

CV joints?

Nitros had this problem.  It had nothing to do with the radio, but some module under the hood.

Thread is 9 years old.  He is long gone!  Possible wheel sensor(s).

That would be "cornfusion"!

Welcome to the the forum.  More than likely you will not be able to add the Factory Alpine System because it runs on the CanBus.  Without going into too much detail, the Factory upgrade can not be added to a Dodge Nitro, so I doubt that it can be added to your DJ.  You will have to go aftermarket like I did.  The aftermarket headlights are garbage and expensive, IMHO.
