I would suggest reading the original post in this thread..all your questions should be answered there or somewhere else in this thread. I'm not familiar with the base swap, but there is some wiring required. You will need some other parts, possible a gps antenna and a usb hub. Again, this should...

On the off chance anyone is still looking for a base -> MFT swap, there is a sweet sweet deal on a Premium bezel and full MFT unit. http://www.ebay.com/itm/15-16-2015-2016-MUSTANG-COYOTE-GT-SHAKER-bezel-RADIO-SCREEN-TOUCH-PREMIUM-SYNC-2-/253018306110

For those attempting to add MFT (Sync 2) to their base models, I found an eBay seller with dozens of modules for only $100-200 (click to see their store). Most pics show screen+APIM, but it is worth double checking before you order. I am not affiliated with them in any way...

Removed the eBay link. I would try the generic 4-pin myself, but most of them take 4-6 weeks to ship from China. They may not be a direct fit, but I think it could work if you shape the ends or force it a little. The MFT connector has more info..pic below. Front orange side: MXN 10 ---...

In the link I mentioned, post #1 describes the full hardware swap for MFT->Sync 3 Fusions. They are using the dual-USB module, but the wiring for the USB hub looks the same.

zackmd1 Thanks for the correction. I hadn't heard about any required ACM programming until now. Is that for base models only, or for premiums (MFT) as well? HextallS550 The connector reads "1-JST-4". I uploaded 4 pics to an Imgur album for reference. Hope this info can help others can...

hipporo If you have a '17 base, Android Auto should work fine with the existing USB hub. To add Apple CarPlay requires a $60 hub and no wiring. The programming Hextall mentioned is for the APIM, not ACM. I'm not sure what is required to DIY, but there are a few guys offering programming for...

Thanks, I'll go back and look for it. Sounds like it'll be a better spot for the new antenna as well. I should have been more clear, I'm swapping from factory MFT to a Sync 3 unit. My existing hub is a USB/SD/Aux in, with the 8-pin connector (photo). I have the new HU5Z hub which I am looking...

I completed the head unit swap, but have 2 issues: the compass and the new usb module. From my understanding I need to disconnect the old GPS module, but I'm not sure where it's located.. is it behind the center dash near the touchscreen, or behind the driver's side instrument cluster? For the...

Ah, sorry to hear that. Looks like we're in the same boat. I'm still trying to resolve my own "mixup" with the salvage yard. Note that if you plan to use CarPlay/Android Auto, you won't really need nav. I think Hextall is referring to this part number on the APIM.. mine reads...

This is what I was talking about. Sadly that method doesn't work any longer. It may work for cars that are currently for sale (by Ford dealers) or recently sold, but as far as I know, window sticker requests can only be generated internally now, requiring a special key or token. Edit: Ford...

About a year ago you could easily look up Ford window stickers using the VIN, but they stopped offering that service publicly. You can plug the VIN and download the vehicle's As-Built here, but I am not sure which of the values refers to Nav. This is the same site you would use for APIM...

Ah..shame. $450 is what I paid for mine, B condition. $250 is insanely cheap. I'm guessing it's a perk of Car-Part Pro? If you had a free minute, I would certainly appreciate if you could help me source a more wallet-friendly APIM.

Does that price for the APIM include the touchscreen? I bought an APIM+screen I thought had Nav, but after installation I'm not seeing the Nav icon. Not sure what a fair price would be for this.
