UConnect is a suite of BlueTooth and Voice Activated technologies used by DC in many of thier vehicles. With a UConnect kit you can issue voice commands to your radio and use the cars stereo w/ your cellphone as a speaker phone.

To add UConnect to a vehicle depends on the stereo your vehicle is equiped with. If you have the MyGIG unit you can simply ad the $50 MOPAR mic kit. If you're using one of the changer units you'll need a UConnect wiring harness which if I understand it correctly is something like $200 plus dollars. The good news is the more expensive harness typically includes the iPod connector kit if you happen to have an iPod.
