Default 2016 JKU Rubicon Radio Replacement

Looking to replace the 430N radio/nav in my 2016 Rubicon with an aftermarket unit. would like to have touch screen with nav and front and rear cameras. Any recommendations/suggestions? Factory unit is not working properly.

I recently replaced mine in my ‘15 for the second time. Originally I installed a Pioneer and I just replaced that with a Kenwood. Mostly because I just liked the Kenwood interface better. As an added bonus, the Kenwood is one of their new multimedia-only units so it’s only about half as deep as the ones that take a CD/DVD. The bonus there is that I was able to reinstall the original rear brace that I had to remove to install the first double-DIN head unit. The new one is a DMX-706S.

I like the Pioneer Avic8500nex. Built in Nav but it also has wireless Carplay and Android Auto so no cables hanging down.

Default Alpine

I replaced mine with the alpine i209-wra. Love it! Has both android and car play. It can handle up to 4 cameras. Sound quality is great, weather and mud proof, great support.
