  • A – No. There is not a cost effective way to add automatic climate control.

  • A – No. SYNC Connect is a separate modem optioned in some vehicles. We do not currently offer a kit to add this functionality.

  • A – No. SiriusXM subscriptions are NOT affected by our kit - your SiriusXM ID will remain the same.

  • Q – “My vehicle does not have a camera but I would like to add one at the same time - do I need extra parts or programming?”
  • A – Our kit has an RCA input for a aftermarket backup camera. Simply let us know that you are adding a camera in the customer notes and we will enable it in programming for free!

    I completed a DIY install of this kit to convert my 2016 Focus from the 4" Sync (Gen 1) to 8" Sync 3, and couldn't be happier. It was a day project to get all the wires threaded properly but the YouTube video made by 4Dtech made the process quite easy to follow. All my factory features were retained including the OEM backup camera and rear parking sensors Android Auto works flawlessly as long as you install the Sync 3 Hub in the center console as instructed - I initially tested the unit without this and it would not recognize my phone via the dashboard USB port. The instructions do correctly mention this hub is required, as is the GPS antenna which is installed behind the glovebox. (in non-nav kits it operates the compass). Overall I'm very happy with this conversion kit - I previously used an aftermarket Android-based unit which didn't function as I wanted, now I'm completely set!
