We have a complete plug and play CIC retrofit kit. The price depends on the options you are looking to get.

In the near feature we will offer this kit with COMBOX .

Since this is non-commercial section please PM me for the price quote.

Thank you,
Aleks D.

Whats a combox???

I really want to do this retrofit...Do you also need our VIN number so you can see what options we already have. I don't want to lose any of my current features with the retrofit.
