Yeah. I’d rather just pay you
😂
I literally just did this install completely start to finish in less than 1 hour 😂
@@jafowler89 just got mine yesterday. What are some things to keep in mind or pointers that you got after installing yourself?
@josecervantes9708 well mine might have been a little easier because I have a 2018 with a manual transmission I didn't have to pull the seat or anything because I just ran them under the seat then pulled the rubber out of the cup holder closest to the armrest and there's one bolt that loosened the panel under the shifter and ran them right up to the dash it took like 5 min. It's actually super easy.
@josecervantes9708 the only issue I had was the screen wouldn't come on after installing but I called them up and their guy Michael (shout out to michael) walked me through the firmware setup for the pac unit and the adapter. Took like 5 minutes on the phone and I plugged it back in and it worked perfectly
Looking for something else but got sucked in anyway. Nice to watch a pro work.
You made it look so easy!! Must be experienced, I think I’m gonna look into this cosmetically it looks so much better!!
Hell yeah. I've been waiting for this to drop
Love the way you explained. Looks very easy step by step
Nice instructions. It’s actually simple to do
Another great install video. Great job.
That was a awesome walk thru man. 🔥🔥
Probably the best install I have ever watched. Thank you..
Great upgrade for the Ram!
I love the way explained
Thank you fixed a 2020 1500 as well
Could make a drinking game from each time he said height10 lol. Nice video, great detail.
Or bracket, or module. lol
@@rileyplamondon8095would have alcohol poisoning 😆 🤣 😂
I cant wait to get and install my heigh 10 system
Wow, very nice.
Excellent video.
Does the chime kit do anything else other than chime? can it not be used?
Awesome. Thanks
Literally just finished installing the Heigh10. I give the install video a 4.5/5. It was very thorough, but there were some areas where I had to repeat the section like 10 times to see EXACTLY what you were doing. When you're switching between wiring harnesses and connections, let us know which package it's coming from...the PAC Kit or the Stinger Kit. Also, when you say install with the screws/fasteners, which ones? Even though I watched the video like a hawk, there was some trial and error. All in all, I'm glad you were here for me!
Will this work with a 2020 3500. Watching the video the wiring looks the same. What is different is the mounting for the HEIGH10 brain. Some custom brackets may work or there may be more room deeper in the dash.
Appreciate you
Nice job
your perfect at your video teaching thk you
Glad it was helpful!
hi i the only thing before i buy it is to find a wire from the back of ur radio to the tail gate plug in i changed all the tail gate wires and i got a wire broken off right near the spare tire but blue screen in reverse on camera now any ideas
V
Very well done
Awesome
Nice!
This dude is pro’
I can't wait to get this installed in my 2019 classic warlock. The factory infotainment is terrible for adding after market speakers and subwoofers.
how is it?
Not really. Assuming you have at least the 8.4", Just use an AmpPro to add aftermarket Amps. I have a 2020 1500 with one installed. Toslink out to a DSP to your amp(s). Dsp handles all the equalization. My truck sounds amazing.
Can you do a video from a sport trim I currently have a 8.4 uconnect
Hello is that rust already on the inside metal
What are the differences for 2013 ram 2500 big horn
My auto climate controls don't pop up on the screen? 2017 ram Rebel
What kit do you recommend for use with this unit for swapping the rear view back up camera to put it on the main screen?
If your backup camera shows on your factory radio screen now, there is nothing you will need to do special to have it show on the new radio. If it goes to your rearview mirror, you would need to hardwire that connection and run the RCA cable from the mirror to the dash where the new radio brain is.
Do you have 10inch ram for 2023
Will this kit fit a 2022 DS RAM ? Any complications due to a RAM being converted to right hand drive? Does this provide ,depending on extra cameras mounted on the front,360° view for parking ?
This will work in a 2022 Ram Classic. There should be no issues on a vehicle that has been converted to right hand drive, however it does not have a "birds eye view" or 360 degree viewing option, regardless of how many cameras are connected.
Query? Does this head unit incorporate all peripheral controls? A/C, Heated Seats, Steering Heater, etc... The only way to control the vents (Feet, Split, Defrost, etc.) on a Big Horn is through the touch screen. You Can control temp and fan speed with bezel controls, but that's it... No knobs or controls on the bezel to switch different fan positions/functions.
Yes, on trucks that have the factory dual zone auto climate control those features will be available on the new radio as well.
I need this for my 2014 Ram... Is there a place/web site to get this kit complete? Here in Dallas TX. Thanks
Right on the Stinger Off Road website. See the link below.

My factory back up camera is connected to my rear view mirror, will it be possible to connect it the the upgrade radio or do I have to run new wiring ?
We do not have an adapter with this kit to connect the mirror camera to the Heigh10. You would have to hardwire that camera in order to view it on the Heigh10.
If I have moving guide lines for the factory reverse camera where the lines move with the steering wheel. will they still move with this heigh10 system?
Yes, you will retain your active parking lines.
Can you please tell me what is the model of the nice radio you installed and from where so I can buy one and install it in my 2019 ram.
The link to the radio/kit is below. Hope this helps

If we have the factory hands-free systems in the ram, is there a way we can plug that in instead of using a external speaker
We are not able to integrate with the factory microphone. You will need to use 1 of the 2 microphones provided with the HEIGH10. There is one built into the face of the unit and the external.
that's dumb af
Do the steering wheel controls work as well, or is there something extra that is needed
The kit will retain your steering wheel controls.
Do any of these connections have an effect on the cruise control system on a ‘19 Ram 1500?
The only models that this package would work on for the 2019+ model years is the Classic body style, and the radio will have no effect on factory cruise control in those.
I have a question, I know nothing about radios, I always had people install them for me. I have a 5 inch display on my 2016 ram 1500, I have lost complete control over the volume control and the radio does not have sound. Will replacing this radio unit and installing the one used in this video fix that problem?
Unfortunately, it is impossible to know for sure if the radio replacement will fix your issues with out further diagnosis. We recommend visiting a local SOR dealer and have them take a look at what is going on and give you a professional opinion. You can find one in your area by visiting the page linked below.

If I’m going to use a wireless CarPlay adapter, couldn’t I skip the media hub part and use a shorter usb cable from wireless adapter to the USB port in back? I already have a usb port I use for CarPlay in my current pioneer head unit. (I replaced the left side power outlet with a usb port) I’d use that as the secondary USB port. No need for hdmi for me in car.
While we do not specifically support any wireless CarPlay or Android Auto adaptors, the shorter you make the connection between it and the CP/AA port on the HEIGH10 brain the better.
Installed heigh 10 today. Cameras don’t work 🤦🏻♂️ not sure why.
So what is the optional microphone for? Is it for Bluetooth hands free calls?
It can be routed to the a-pillar or headliner area to provide clearer voice to those on the other end of the call, or the radio can use its internal microphone that is built into the screen.
Just did the install on my 2015 Ram 3500 SLT. I believe you missed a connection from the Brain to the PAC Link. Page 13 step 1 on the paper guide shows a 3 pin lead on the 10 pin camera harness that I’m hoping is what shows the vehicle settings screen. Otherwise, mine may be defective… no vehicle settings page.
If you are still having trouble with your install, please give our tech support team a call when you are able to access the vehicle and wiring to help you troubleshoot further. The number is 727-592-5991. Thank you.
@@StingerOffRoad I’m not having issues at the moment. Just want to make sure that when others install, they make sure to use this as reference but follow the paper instructions.
I would replace the factory one only if you would install it...
Can you show a true 2018 ram install not just bypassing the canbus it would help
I have a ram 3500 with rear active air. Will my suspension lower switch still work and will the animation still show on this radio?
We retain the feature, but the animation is part of the factory radio GUI. We simply have a setting in the setting menu on the HEIGH10
@@StingerOffRoad well hopefully it works out for me. My 8.4 screen took a crap so I’m either stuck waiting months to get it fixed due to the screen shortage on them or I role the dice on this unit. Here’s crossing my fingers
I just installed one in my 2016 Ram and my truck have a factory reversive camera now it don't work , don't have climate control on display and non of my steering wheel function work . nice radio but dang I lost all my factory stuff. I also did the firmware update to determine what problem?
Hi David, please contact tech support at 1-800-477-2267 EXT: 3333
I have a 2016 Ram 2500 Lone Star Edition, with the 8.4 Display. I have looked at a few web sites and they have told me that this radio is Not compatible I like the looks and functionality of this radio. Will it work?
Our RAM kit is compatible with 2013-2018 RAM trucks and 2019-2021 Classic trucks. The only limitation is the manual transmission.
Hey if you ever decide to get that radio I will buy your old one for good money. Thanks .I’m 100% serious
If I had it on my jeep and wanna install it on my ram it would have any issues? Or do I need something new?
hello, please connect with our technical support department to check on this. They can be reached at 1-800-477-2267 EXT: 3333
Do you make a replacement radio for the 2011 Ram?
Absolutely. You can use the universal HEIGH10 (UN1810) and the vehicle specific installation accessories to install one in your 2011 Ram. It should be noted though that the vehicle and climate control information is only available on the 2013-up Rams.
Will that work in my 2018 Ram Bighorn really hate that stock screen
Yes, this will work in all factory audio trims for the 2018 Model year Ram truck
how do i put it the rear camara to the head unit on 2017 dodge ram 3500
For technical questions and installation assistance, please contact our technical support department at 727-592-5991.
just got a 2016 ram 2500 will this be the same on it
Yes, the installation will be the same on a 2016 RAM 2500
How to order for my ram 2023
Do you have anything for a 2019 ram 2500.
We don't currently offer a HEIGH10 vehicle specific kit for the 2019 ram 2500.
oh snap I like the kit but right when you were under the carpet I knew that's too technical for myself
Will this work on a 2013 1500 tradesman?
As long as your dash looks like the one in the video/pictures, it will work in your Tradesman Edition.
Is the chime speaker needed
The chime speaker is only needed in vehicles that came equipped from the factory with the Chrysler Safety Group Features/Package.
Does this fit a 2021 1500 Classic Warlock?
This radio replacement package will work on 2021 Ram Classic trim trucks as well.
will this work on a 2012 ram 1500 set big horn?
Unfortunately it will not work on a 2012
Just purchased a 2018 Dodge Ram 1500 Tradesman. Is this the same as the "classic" as they look the same. I have the rounded corners for my radio. I want to make sure that I dont have to do any splicing or cutting at all. But I also want to make sure that I understood what I saw. Routing all the wires and harnesses, I shouldnt have to mount a third party camera as this routes it into the brain of the radio correct? I saw that there was a secondary mic that came with the radio. Can you not just use the mics that are present in the truck or do you have to use the secondary mic? Also how well does the mic perform? With everything that was also installed will I still be able to use the stirring wheel buttons to function the call function/VR function? And lastly is this android base? Thanks in advance for all the help.
This will fit all 2018 Ram trucks, and the 2019 "Classic." There is no splicing required, and it will retain your factory reverse camera and steering wheel controls. The unit comes with 2 microphones, one built into the face of the unit, and one external, routable microphone. The factory microphones cannot be integrated with. The unit is an android based operating system.
@@StingerOffRoad Thank you so much, what version of Android is it and how often do you guys do security firmware updates?
Any clue when this will be back in stock?
I don't have an exact date for you. Sign up for the "Notify Me When Available" email here stingeroffroad.com/collections/shop-by-trucks-model/products/rb10ram13b
All this, and you still can integrate XM? 🤔
and they want $1200 for this thing. plus $750 for the ram truck specific install kit that doesn't even come with the dash install brackets. LOL fuck that noise
I imagine this install is a bit simpler if you don't have the center seat but the center console instead?
Correct. You will not need to route under and pull the seat apart to install the media hub replacement in a truck with the full console
Does the HEIGH10 support wireless Apple car play?
CarPlay and Android Auto are only available when connected via USB
@@StingerOffRoad does it support playing Apple Music via Bluetooth or you have to plug in via usb?
Do these not work with a 2013 1500 SLT?
Hello, yes, this radio does work with that model 🙂
sterio from 2019 ram Will fit n a 2014 ram bro ????
This kit will also work in a 2019 Ram Classic body style, but will not work in the new body style.
Will this still work with steering wheel buttons volume and such? If I use the hands free button will it still pick up voice? Does this have CarPlay?
Also is the CarPlay wireless?
Yes, the steering controls will still work, the CarPlay is wired.
Will it fit 2015 ram 2500 ?? Where do I order it from ??
The unit can be purchased from us directly at the page liked below. It will work in a 2015 Ram 2500 as long as it is not a manual transmission vehicle.

How long was the usb cables used for this?
The included dual USB is 4ft long
@@StingerOffRoad so how long was the USB cord in the video?
Apologies. I mistook the length for those that are included with our Chevy/GMC and Wrangler JK kits. The included cables in the RAM kit are 10 feet long to reach to the console.

Where are you guys located? I have a 2018 and I have been wanting to upgrade my radio since I got the truck.

Is this for the manual or automatic
This kit is only compatible with the automatic RAM trucks. If you have further questions, please contact our technical support department at 1-800-477-2267 EXT: 3333
Does SiriusXM work with this
Sirius XM totally works! You do have to purchase Sirius XM's proprietary tuner kit to use it on the HEIGH10 from your local audio retailer or online retailer. We include an adapter that allows you to keep the slim factory look and usage of the OEM XM antenna!
Will this be coming back anytime soon? Does anyone know?
Unfortunately we don't have an ETA on restock currently. We would advise clicking the "NOTIFY ME WHEN AVAILABLE" button on the product page to get an email as sook as we have them back on the site. This will let you know right away, without having to check back all the time. Hope this helps
Will this work with a 2011 ram?
This is designed for the 2014-18 Rams, and 1019 and 2020 Classic body style Ram. It will not work on a 2011 model year

Thanks. I believe u said that it doesn't have backup camera capability.
The HEIGH10 has 4 camera inputs, one of which is generally used for backup camera, and defaulted that way in our kit to maintain the factory reverse camera
@@StingerOffRoad
Thanks again
will this work on a 2012
Unfortunately this will not work in a 2012 Ram. You could use the HEIGH10 UN1810 radio with the appropriate vehicle specific installation parts in the vehicle though. Check out a local PAC-Audio retailer and they can get you set up with the needed installation accessories to get the HEIGH10 installed for you
I cain't get my passengers seat out!! I clap my hands like you did and NOTHING!!!!
Sadly, you must not have a magic truck like we do, Tony.
@@StingerOffRoad 🤣
that thing is way too expensive. $1200 for the radio $750 for the ram truck installation kit that doesn't even come with the dash adapter. (can't find the price of this on your website). you guys are crazy. plus you don't even put any kind of specs of this device on your site. like what kind of RMS power it has. does it require another adapter for sirius XM?
The installation kit for the RAM includes the required interfaces, as well as the mounting for the radio brain and the screen. The specs for the HEIGH10 can be found on the HEIGH10 product page on stingerelectronics.com, as well as by clicking on the "SPECS" tab on the product page on Stinger Off Road (link below). The universal satellite radio tuner (SXV300V1) is available separately

What wiring kit do you use?
Should be able to use the factory mic. I don't like the dumb little mic
The HEIGH10 has a microphone that is built into the screen that can be used if you do not want to install the external mic that comes with the radio kit. Unfortunately, the factory microphone is not able to be used with any aftermarket radios.
Seems like a lot of BS just to install a screen. Tearing out seating, carpet, wire here, run wire there…
The HEIGH10 has plenty of features to make the upgrade worth-while. We also have an authorized installer locator, so you can save yourself from doing the install. If you have any further questions, feel free to contact us at 1-800-477-2267 EXT: 2285
I have a 2018 with the center floor mounted console. Can the HDMI/USB hub cables be routed under the console instead of the carpet?
You may have some additional length of cable to contend with and need to find room for, but yes, you can route it that way if you have a console that goes all the way to the dash.
Does this fit a 2018 2500 with a manual trans??
It is not compatible with manual transmission vehicles
