I'm going to do this as well...

Nice job, all that's left is a Sync 3 upgrade and you'll have a premium on the cheap.Done gents. Very happy with the upgrade. I also added sound deadener under the carpeting.
While I had the console out, I replaced the stock Ford shifter with a steeda tri-ax race shifter. Night and day improvement.
That's totally fair, I kind of like not having a distracting touch screen as well, personally. As for the backup beeping, newer cars have that even with 300A (like mine) so it's certainly possible. Although I suspect your car is missing the rear proximity sensors themselves. They go under the little circular bumper plugs on the lower part of the rear bumper.Thanks for the kind words, guys. I'd like to think this leather is higher quality than the OEM leather... it's quite robust as I spent hours pulling and stretching it up close. You guys should do this as well if you're considering the project. What an improvement in looks and experience.
Funny, being an older dude, I don't like the huge/bright sync screen in my face when driving --- one of the reasons I wanted the base model and tiny screen. Still can't believe I own a car with a backup camera (my first). The 4" screen works for me.
For one of my next projects, I will be researching a way to activate the backup warning "tone/beep" if possible. My 300a setup did not include the warning mechanism apparently.
