I have tried to set mine back to "Stereo" but it will not change. I clicked the "Reset All" button and it stays on surround.
I'm sure I missing something simple. Any help is appreciated.
My previous statement was referring to the setting in the Sync (stock) stereo settings. Not sure if I made that clear before. Sorry.

100% clear. When I go into the sync audio settings I cannot set "Stereo" it stays on "Suround". The button or tab in the top right conner for "Reset All" clicks and sets the fade setting back to center but still "Suround" is forced. Has anyone sen this before? TY!!

I tried searching forum and didn’t see if this was covered.

Was able to install an emulator and run Bluetooth controller successfully. It was plugged in the video because the controller wasn’t charged
Do you have a write up on how you did this? Looks like fun. I just installed my screen yesterday and am getting it setup

Great thread, just got the truck and already thinking about this one for the wireless apple carplay feature.

Anyone experience issues with the bezel falling off while on rough terrain? Looks like it just snaps in and only uses two bolts on the top? Makes me wonder if its sturdy enough for the high speed washboard and whoops by the house

It uses the factory mounting. If your factory plate stays on, this should be no different. To answer your question I’ve had zero issues.

You can do wireless carplay now, I have the this 14.4" unit but still use this for wireless carplay via sync: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0CYZQJ37J/?tag=fordraptorforum-20

Does the Autotec use any of the original hardware\electronics, like the HVAC controls? I'm guessing they have you transplant them (HVAC controls) from the OEM unit to the Autotec bezel.

Thats right. I was thinking of the weight of it trying to rip the bezel out. Glad to hear she's sturdy, thank you!
