Anyone do the EVIC mod on an 06?

I'm thinking about buying console from 04 Grand Cherokee. Can anyone tell me if this will be compatible and if anyone has done a mod on 06 yet?

I doubt it. I think you need one from an 05-07 Liberty only.

I have an EVIC from an 04 Liberty in mine. If you do not have TPMS tread carefully.

I have an GC 03 in my 05 CRD, everything workd except temp. I think you need at least an 05 or newer.

Safe Travels!

I do have TPMS, what difference does that make? Do I have to rewire the system from the dash alert to the EVIC?

Also, I see an 06 one for sale on eBay, but it doesn't have moonroof controls. I'm thinking about buying it, and cutting in a spot for a switch. Is that possible or should I just keep on looking?

Before '05 the receiver for the TPMS was in the EVIC and the pressure sensors had to be located with a training magnet. '05 and after Libertys with TPMS have antennas (one in each of the front fender wells and one in one of the back fender wells)connected to the "wireless unit" which determines which wheel has which pressure sensor. The antennas cannot easily be added if you do not have TPMS. The only soultion is to do what I did use an '04 EVIC with TPMS receiver in the EVIC and add sensors that the '04 EVIC can read or buy an EVIC without TPMS. If you surf the web you can find the part numbers of the EVICs and sensors.
