I balked at the $599 navigation option when I knew I'd have my phone plugged in and using CarPlay most of the time anyway. When I got the car and started playing with the digital cluster, pressing the nav button just brought up the compass poking fun at me for not ticking every box on the order form. So whatever, I've swapped out Sync modules before on other cars time to get to work.
There's a deluge of Sync modules on eBay from wrecked cars, so I ordered a Sync 3 Gen 4 unit. Ran me $300 all in. A few days and a little dash disassembly later, popped it in and updated it from the 3.2 it had on it to 3.4. Changed a few variables on the IPC and APIM with Forscan and voila, working Nav for half the price.
Any Gen 4 Nav unit should work, though 2020 mfg dates apparently have issues upgrading software versions. This particular one has a mfg date in 2018. PN KR3T-14G370-CCB. The non-Nav part that it came with is LR3T-14G370-BBS.
