I wanted to see if anyone here has upgraded their 2012 or 2013 from the base 130 radio to the 430N? It's the one option I want that I can't get on the new Sport I'm going to order. It will have Alpine, connectivity group and Sat radio, so I think it's plug and play but was looking for someone who's actually done it and can confirm that. Thanks.

 

I upgraded from a 130 with SIRIUS to a RHB 430N in my 2011, it was plug and play. Easy upgrade. My 2011 uses the High Speed version. I believe the 2012 and 2013 Jeeps also use the High Speed version, so I believe this will work. I've seen RHB 430N's listed at the OEM Auto Parts web site fitting both 2011 and 2012 Jeeps.

 

i did mine but you ll play hell getting sirius to switch over the years subscription which is connected to your original head unit. While my sticker says I paid $195 for a subscription Sirius will swear up and down it is a free trial.. It is plug and play really simple and u can use a high speed version forom a2010 and then upgrade the software yourself and save a bunch of money but dont count on your sirius transferring over

 

Where can you buy a 430. ....?

Can't find any at a decent price

 

Thanks, this was the info I needed. I know on my 08 I had to add the Nav antenna, but my understanding was the Nav and Sirius antennas were combined, as was the plug so I should be good to go.

 

I bought mine on ebay set my favorite searches for 430 RHB and then a few favorite searches for the part numbers for the high speed. Dont buy one from those guys selling them for $1000 . I paid like $500 for mine I have seen them as low as 400 in an auction.

The nav antenna / Sirius antenna beginning in 2011 is integrated meaning it uses the same plug. However I do believe that the RHB doesnt even have a navigation antenna it is built into the unit but I am not 100% sure I do know the unit I bought came from a 2010 and it had no blue plug (thats the nav antenna socket) it only had the gold one which previous to 2011 is suppose to only be Sirius. 2011+ the gold plug is used for the integrated antenna(sirius/nav). In the event you get a unit that has a blue plug you will need an additional nav antenna but thats $15 on ebay and you can set the magnetic antenna right on top of the unit itself under the dash no need to go to the roof or anyhting. (search for fakra gps antenna picture should show a blue plug)

I know the 420N has garmin navigation built into it and I think about those add on garmin navigation units how they have the antenna built into them.


just make sure you get a 430n and not just a 430 because they also make a 430 with everything except the nav
