Default OEM Radio Upgrade 2016 Jeep Cherokee

So where do I start I need some advice so my wife has a Jeep Cherokee 2016 Sport AWD (the basic basic model) this is how it looks now

So I ended up buying this VP3 NA

I went ahead and took out the old radio and install the new used one I ran into a problem where the sizes of the bezel are not the same no problem ill just order one off eBay I found one that has a hazard light. But when I pop my original bezel off it was just basic no plugs.


But then i noticed that the there is no volume control I could not get the sound I did a little more digging and found now I need to replace the Climate control so i went on eBay and found one

Now my question is now I get my hazard lights to work with the one i am going order off eBat. Or what i am doing is a bad idea because in my dash my miles flash after putting my new radio.
This is how it looks like


Thanks

You need the dealer to do what's called a proxi-alignment. This is caused by the mileage or the VIN stored in the radio not matching what the ECM and the dash have stored, and the flashing indicates possible odometer tampering.
