The Metra 99-6527B is one of the most complete aftermarket radio integration kits available for 2013–2017 Ram trucks equipped with the factory 8.4-inch touchscreen system. It allows installation of either a single-DIN or double-DIN aftermarket radio while retaining major factory vehicle functions through an integrated 4.3-inch touchscreen control panel.

This kit is extremely popular for:

  • Apple CarPlay upgrades
  • Android Auto upgrades
  • Kenwood Excelon installs
  • Alpine Halo installs
  • Sony ES multimedia systems
  • Full amplified Ram builds

because it preserves factory climate controls and OEM integration better than most basic dash kits.
