2013-2014 Raptors Sync 2 -> Sync 3 Upgrade

[_AP018]

Just changed out my Sync 2 to Sync 3. What a difference. Functions as it should, no complaints here, and I now have an interface with my phone. Very happy with it, and ready for road trips!

Any Photos to share across? Do you still have your raptor logo on start up ?

Having AA / Carplay was the biggest reason I swapped over. I don't want to touch my phone while driving. The navigation wasn't showing in the correct location, maybe that could have been in need of an update or something needing to be re-calibrated.. Having maps and my music on the same screen and not needing to mess with my phone to change or switch between apps is super helpful. The screen is much nicer and doesn't require as much pressure to select things.
My one thing I don't like with it so far is changing the temperature and it doesn't show what I'm changing it to unless I'm in the climate "app"

This!

As a motorcyclist who commutes Monday through Friday, I appreciate those who try to avoid their phones as much as possible.

I also agree with the climate control. I hate having to get out of the carplay dash to the sync dash to check temps and etc. I saw someone post a indash setup that had everything on the screen and that might be enough reason for me to ditch this Sync3 setup.

Honestly looks like a factory unit in there. Installation wasn't difficult, hopped on Youtube to verify all the bolts to pull the dash trim off and get the surround pulled without breaking anything. All I had to do was pull off the mounting brackets off the old screen and attach it to the new one. Startup screen does still say Raptor.

Do you keep a video input though?

Yes, I bought a new camera for the tailgate from Camerasource and it works great. Its a much clearer picture. Front camera I have no clue, never used it and like much of the others probably doesn't work anyway lol

I thought I was the only one that used the RCA ports in the cobsole, ipod classics for music videos and movies, old technology but works well.

I have a SNES console hooked up at the moment. I’m about to hardwire in a PS4
