2013-2014 Raptors Sync 2 -> Sync 3 Upgrade

[Bar]

Installed today. It came in a day, and I got to work this evening. Took about 1.5 hours. Reasons:

1) Our interior trim is different, so had to work to get some of the pieces out.
2) Upfitters need to be pulled, so you can access the bottom screws below the A/C controls.
3) Video on their site is pretty good, but we have more screws, and some are different sizes.

All in all, I like it. Very responsive and everything works.

Worth it to me. More responsive than Sync 2. In reality, one reason I did it is because Ford isn't supporting the Sync 2 anymore, and my phone would disconnect mid-call every single call. I didn't want aftermarket, and I can always put the 2 back in. Radio sounds the same, functionality is similar, but the real positive, at least for me, was CarPlay. I thought that was worth the $2k. I'd recommend it, more so, as Sync 2 falls more behind.

do you still get car play with the nav version?

CarPlay basically makes the stereo look like an iPhone. Messages, Maps, and other apps like TuneIn. You swipe across to get to other screens. It also supports the Android version.

Yes to CarPlay and Nav. I have both.

As for the Splash Screen, they messed up and are sending me an update.

If ordering from 4dtech, tell them you have a raptor. If they don't check the VIN thoroughly, you'll get the standard splash screen. Saves you a day of waiting for the update. Enjoy.

Installed yesterday, simple to install and love the apple CarPlay. Had to contact 4d to get the splash update sent.
