    My 2010 with 225,000 miles finally blew the head gasket. I went out and bought a 2013 with 70,000 miles and I’m wondering about transferring the back up camera and the radio. Is this plug and play or will I be doing a lot of additional wiring? Is there anything else I should be considering transferring to the new vehicle before selling the old carcass

    The replacement radio I bought was listed as fitting 2010 thru 2013 but fit my 2014 without any problems. Only caveat might be is one of the radios was the JBL option. Not sure about the back up camera.

    As one who just went through the same thing....remember to take the USB thumb drive out of the center glove compartment.

    If you are selling the old car for scrap, remove the five headrests first. Surprisingly, each is worth a small fortune on eBay, assuming they are in decent condition.

    Clean the EGR and intake manifold, install an Oil Catch Can, on the new one. (y)
