What head unit is your radio, ie RER, RES? you may only need a cheaper cable that you can get from your dealer for about 55 bucks CDN.

If its RER you only need 82211743AB

I have the REQ, the RER is the touch screen right?

Looks like your original solution will work. Best bet is from US.

also i know my iphone will sync with the radio for calling, but will i be able to sync my music two ??. i searched and they say u need a cord for the ipod, but does that mean u need a cord for the iphone to, uno because the iphone is bluetooth ?

i also been looking at prices for the RER, i debating on the best option. should i buy the kit or buy the RER. if i buy the RER all i need is the Mic right ?
Its hard to find simple good info on the net lol

I have the RER and you only need the mic cable and to activate it in the engineering mode. (Press Menu/Seek Up/Seek Down at the same time) and activate Enable VR JK/HFM.

RER radio is about $1900.00 but includes nav.

NAV updates are $199 US each year.

Thanks for the info !

I had the RES and installed the RBZ (touch screen, 30 gig hdd, no nav), $350 from the US. Got a quote from the dealer for the uconnect module including the mic (part no. 82211878) for $270. So around $700, my $100 Garmin does the rest. Way cheaper this way.
