Default OEM Screen Swap?

Hi. I have 2016 RC350. It has the 7" display screen. If I can find a donor RC350 (2018+) that has an OEM 10" screen, is it a direct swap? Or is there software update involved as well?

Thanks.

I don’t think it’s a direct swap as the connector on the back of the screen are different. Best bet is to go with aftermarket screen. I went with the Lexion 10” screen with wireless CarPlay. This unit is awesome and looks very updated in the interior.

Thanks for your input. I kind of suspected it's not going to be plug and play. That Lexion screen looks great!

Have you had any issues with this unit since you installed it? I keep reading stuff online about people not getting sound/audio... Whats the functionality been like with the OEM buttons (steering wheel, use of track pad etc)?
