Does anybody have a picture of the portable speaker dock? I know that there is a Bose that is cheaper, I just have no idea what the Jeep dock looks like. I assume it taps into the existing plug behind the panel.

I have the upgraded 7" / Alpine, so the "tray" is there.

I might just run over to the dealer and check their set up. So far, no posts on it.

Just my stupid opinion here, but that $300 seems like a lot for a BT speaker.
That’s because it is, but having it built in seems like a small price to pay on a 55k truck. Plus it’s alpine so it can’t be too bad right?

You do pay extra for the factory fit, but it is a good little speaker. Here are some pics. I only had a yardstick handy for measurements so they are close but not precise.
The unit is 9-7/8“ long, 5-1/2” tall, 2-3/4” deep
I included a shot of the back for the contact and latch positions. The electrical contacts are ~ 2-3/16” and the latch bar is 3-3/8” from the bottom.
Also, note the end shot which shows the angles at the top and bottom both front and back.
The positioning key on the bottom is about 2-1/8” from the back and maybe 2-3/8” long, 1/4” rounded slot.

It would be nice to find a direct fit aftermarket replacement. I bet these will get lost or broken fairly often.

I do like that it is integrated with the truck audio when docked. I doubt there are any aftermarket options that will do that.

It is a pretty neat idea but it was packaged with several other things that I didn’t want or need so we didn’t order it.

True. Anything with a brand logo is always going to be more $$$. We already have to defend how much we pay for features on a Jeep...a $300 should be easy :)

Seems like a lot but factor in the dock and it isn't tooooo bad. I bet getting it from Mopar would be like $600 plus installation. edit: it's $750

It doesn't.

I’m not sure it does anything when docked. The location behind the seat won’t allow it to contribute to the cab audio. The mids and highs would be muffled and though it is a decent boomy Bluetooth speaker it is not a real sub.

Correct...It doesn't come on with the rest of the system. It is just dock that keeps it charged.

So, the entire plastic unit is different. Interesting. Easy swap, if I find one. I thought they would have tapped into that existing shelf.
