Great Video, I would love to do this upgrade on my 23 F150 STX.. Thank you for sharing this..

Do it!

When you do the fuse jumpers I had a wiring guy I don't know what else to call him he does entertainment install he said never go higher than the fuse that you pull out of the fues box you want to be equal or less and he explained why because if there is a short with your aftermarket system that fuse would blow before the factory one keeping your factory components safe but this was a pretty sweet

I love that your sharing a really cool hack. If you can take a little constructive criticism though - PLEASE put a towel or cloth or something down when you're working on stuff. When you had your old heater control panel upside down on your console and were monkeying with all the plugs and bolts - it was really ratcheting my OCD as the panels were mashing against each other and sliding all over the place. ;)

Makes sense I think that’s great feedback

Just curious, what is the website that sells the whole 12” unit you talked about in Michigan

Hey man love the video do you know if I can do this swap in a 2018 raptor?

Any issues with keeping the 8” APIM? Some people have said they had issues until they swapped to the (12” APIM). Awesome video! Gathering the parts to do the swap!

page is missing for the link on the bottom plastic piece

Have you ever thought about installing a push to start system?

Now that it's been awhile, how's it holding up? Any issues?

Thank u

I have a 2021 stx. Since day 1, the backup camera has sucked, it has 360 cameras. It lags badly and the resolution is terrible. Did you suffer from any of this? And did the 12” screen fix any of it?

Hey man what’s the part number for the bottom piece ?

Can you document a little more about where to source all the cables?

The green cable from eBay and the other from a Ford parts dealer online.

Did you have to have the screen programmed at a ford dealership or did the wiring harness take care of that?

Hey Shaun. I did all as you did on the video, I checked both wires and they have 12v but the screen does not turn on. I am thinking I got a bad screen. Is there any other thing you did other than what you showed on the video?

Hey! Question, is the pin you are having to modify and other parts for installing the Sync 4? I just checked my 21 STX and it has Sync 4 already, would i be able to just plug in that pin without modding it? Would that also apply to any other parts? (First time seriously upgrading so just wanted to double check before i fully committed)

Thanks for the insights into infotainment, I am working on installing a 12" screen in my 2019 Ford edge, sync 4. I have learnt a lot from you. My greatest worry was on the harness and plugs. You mind giving ideas outside F150 trucks?

Followed these steps and I am having an issue. Sometimes the screen powers on, sometimes it doesn't. Sometimes the screen is responsive to touch sometimes its not. It will also randomly go black. Any suggestions?

Hi Shaun, just wondering how it’s still working. I made the swap today and the screen will stay on about 5 minutes. Reset doesn’t work but unplugging will for another 5 minutes or so. Also, screen shows the native 12” layout instead of the 8” format. Any ideas on why the screen is shutting off?

Check to make sure you don’t have power and ground swapped. Then hold the power button and track forward button at the same time for 5-10 seconds to reset the system. I know 3 different people have received defective screens recently that did the same exact thing as yours, and on the other end 10+ people have hit me up and told me it worked great

Cheap? Must have fun money. I thought about doing this but here's why i wont: 1) cost 2) time for a diy 3) no advantage for a larger screen as its only more surface area but functionality remains almost unchanged(only thing i can think of is gps perhaps but who uses factory gps anyways). If it was possible to install an aftermarket radio(its a dying art im afraid) on these trucks, that would warrant the change and price.
