So,can someone enlighten me as to the difference between SYNC1-2-3 and if its worth the prices some have posted....
I have a 2014 (built in of 2013)...so I do have a touch screen...
Thanks

It depends on what you want and what your skill level is with either a hex editor or ForScan software. If you want a unit with Nav, expect to pay $600-900 for the components, if you don’t need nav and just want apple CarPlay, then you can get into sync III for $350 or so.

Once again, you will have to mod the radios features to work in a ‘14 and you will need to mod the brackets for the screen.

I changed my sync II units in both my ‘13 & ‘15 trucks, personally, I think it sounds better.

You also don’t want to buy a unit from Canada, they don’t have the physical components for HD radio. If that matters to you.

I have a 2011 with lux Pkg, touch screen, Navfac and wondering what I can do to upgrade my unit. My son said IPad is the way to go but i do not have one handy.

Have any pictures of the look before and after by chance?
Sorry for the late reply. You probably already made your upgrades, but if not, here’s the after/before. The bezel still needs a little works to round out the edges, but it’s good enough for now.
