Not sure why the non nav is larger, but I definitely used the nav version and it shows lincoln background when starting up

Wow. When I did my sync 3 upgrade, I had to pop the clips and  remove the cover from the center speaker. I never looked inside of it once I removed it but now that i'm looking, there's a good bit of work involved. It still isn't a bad job if you follow the instructions that drolds1 posted. It took me about an hour to remove the FCIM and i'm nowhere near a mechanical type guy

Philp, are you referring to the speaker in the center of the dash? If so, the cover for that speaker comes off easy. It's held in by 4 or 5 clips. You basically can use a flathead screw driver or something similar to lift up on one edge to get it started, then use your hand to unsnap the others.

Rue, I just re-read your message. By looking at it, it seems like they are referring to upgrading to sync 3 but i'm not 100% sure. If that's the case, $800 doesn't sound bad.

Finally upgraded my 2014 mkz to sync 3. Everything seems to be working good so far.

I don't know much about that. I wish I could help you. Hopefully someone here will be able to help

Laminar, are u attempting to do the conversion as well?

I found the screen and apim on car-part.com. As far as programming, I gave dan my VIN and he put together a sync 3 as-built file for me according to my vin. I will do the programming myself with forscan. I'm so ready to install everything. Still waiting to get my car back from the dealership. They had to repair some things under warranty. They assured me that I'll have it back next week though.

Give me your email address. I have a print out of what it takes to remove the screen

Sourced the parts myself. Guy name Dan will be doing the programming. He have successfully did the programming for several people remotely. I have everything I need except for the new usb hub, which should be delivered Wednesday or Thursday. So I should be installing this friday. I'll let you all know how it goes.

I'll be upgrading mine to sync 3 probably next week. I'm just waiting for 1 more part to come in.
