I should have confirmation (affirmative or negative) later today.

Please let us know as my order for one is on hold until then.

My thesis was about computer vision in cotton harvesting. Cool stuff! Trying to program how objects are recognized is quite involved. Most people forget that their eyes are 2d sensors using stereopsis to create a 3d perception.

Start getting into hyperspace and you realize it would take 2 or more 3d images (each of which could be represented by two 2d images) and the processing power necessary to just analyze one scene becomes incredible.
Actually eyeball is more than just taking two images to see 3D.
The thing that most 3D system can't do is focusing. Focusing in the eye tells the person how close this object is. You can definitely feel how close or far an object is by using just one eye because when you focus with one eye, you can feel the eye muscle that moves the lens.
The problem with 3D system is the person will try to refocus if an object is moving closer to the person and the object would be blurry. Also, the eyeballs would tend to move towards the object (more cross eye), so the object is not in the right position.

Trying to justify adding CarPlay by what all it brings to the party and came across this summary of available apps.


  • Podcasts - Listen to your favorite Podcasts.
  • Audiobooks - Don't have time to read books? Listen to them instead.
  • iHeartRadio - Stream your favorite radio stations, with commercials.
  • At Bat - Listen to live or archived baseball games (subscription required).
  • Spotify - Stream your favorite artists and albums (subscription required).
  • Stitcher - Enjoy your favorite radio shows.
  • CBS Radio - Get your CBS news, live.
  • Overcast - A simple Podcast player.
  • Audiobooks.com - Listen to over 65,000 audiobooks for free.
  • Pandora - Stream free, personalized radio.
  • Slacker Radio - Streaming radio curated by humans.
  • Vox - Listen to FLAC and Hi-Res Audio streamed from your cloud storage.
  • NPR - Stay up to date with the latest national news.
It seems like you get a lot of audio/music stuff and not much else. My Sirius subscription takes care of that. Yes, you get the calling and map features on your phone, but I already have those. Can you google or yelp stuff? Does waze still work? What else an I missing?

Has anyone successfully swapped out the USB on a 2015 with the Sync 3 retrofit? I got the USB hub part but the connected on the 2015 is fat and tall vs the long thin connector on the new hub. I am guessing I need to splice some wires to manage it but has anyone else done it yet?

I wish I had good news...

Heck, I wish I had any news.

The only thing I can confirm is that the USPS does not know what Monday, December 19th means. It seems ya'll get to wait another day with me.

Here is a contribution for those of you who have FORScan:

Pull up your APIM As-Built Data for editing...Only works with 2.0+ software.

Change this line:
7D0-04-01 xxxx xxxx 06xx

Adding the 06 in this spot should change the generic SYNC bluetooth pairing name to say Ford Mustang instead.

Let me know.

Others: Fusion is 03, F-150 is 0E, Edge is 09, MKZ is 19, and there are more of course.
This does not seem to work.
I deleted and repaired the phone. -> still SYNC
I still need to try a SYNC reset... after I start dinner cooking.

My takeaways from following this thread since its start to now:

1. Damn am I glad to be an Android user.
2. You people are amazing. Uploading the file when mirror goes down, creating YT videos, helping people troubleshoot. Its hard to imagine being a Mustang owner without these forums.

Anyway, I upgraded my GT earlier this evening and everything went of without a hitch all thanks to you folks.

Thanks again.
