So just installing the new hub makes it work ? No wiring changes or anything? Where did you order it from
Yeah it's pretty simple, I was more worried about messing up the update via the thumdrive than installing the hub. You take a flathead and slide it into the top behind the lip of the USB charger in the console (there is actually a small space in the middle ground out for you to slide a tool behind it) and pop it out. There are 3 wires you just plug into the new one and pop it back in.

I can handle wiring just fine; I can see exactly where things are, and can take my time, rechecking if needed. Updating software is what makes me nervous. You just pop a thumb drive in and hope for the best. At the end of the day you have no idea what's happening and can't see any work being done unlike mechanical things.

I'll be on android for a while. I just wanted to know to compare against the estimated $200 when it was first announced that we were going to need them for car play

I believe that was an early estimate for dealer install. Parts & labor.
First that estimate was to order the part, so no labor.

As far as install; From what I'm reading there is like a 5 min install. Pop the old on and plug in the new one.

So if a dealer does charfe $200 parts ad labor; that would be like $140 just for 5 mins work.

Plus the software update...

Also, dealers don't charge for 5 minutes. They usually start at 1hr as a minimum.

I have a navigation 2016 Mustang. I downloaded the file from page 1, but when I plugged the USB into the car, I got an error message saying there is not enough room to do the install. Is there more to this upgrade process than extracting and plugging in the downloaded files?
