Straight forward installation. Large improvement over Sync 2
I purchased the Sync 3 upgrade kit after the screen on my Sync 2 system froze and would not come back to life... even after complete removal and reinsertion into the dash. I agonized over the $2,000 price tag, but in the end I think it was worth it. I had been debating trading in my 2014 truck before the Sync 2 locked up. Not anymore. Now I'm planning on keeping my truck for several more years.
For those considering upgrading from Sync 2 to Sync 3, I offer this review.
1: Installation was straight forward. From first screw to last screw it took me 48 minutes. I had previously tinkered with the dash before, so I was familiar with how to take it out. That being said, when I tinkered with the dash before, I used 4Dtech's video to learn how. I followed the installation video, by putting my laptop in the passenger seat and hitting pause at each step. It made the installation simple and relatively painless. I suggest you watch the video a couple of times before you start. It helps. The longest part of the actual installation was the time I took to decide exactly where to put the GPS antennae. I think that cost me ten minutes.
2: The system literally is plug and play. The hardest part is making sure that you don't drop a screw behind the dash when you are re-assembling the dash. After an initial boot-up, the system came online with zero problems.
3: The system is a VAST improvement over Sync 2. Not only is the system more intuitive and more functional, but it is faster. The computing speed runs circles around Sync 2. Voice to text and voice activated navigation respond better as well. No more repeating myself five times to send one text. -
Awesome Product with Easy Installation
Everything was exactly as advertised. The installation was very straightforward. I recommend buying the tools needed, as they are metric (if you don’t use metric).
It’s very nice having the upgraded sync in my 2013 F150. Will help me keep my truck another 5 years. Totally worth it. -
Upgrade
One word. AWESOME!

Easy Install, Big Improvement
The Sync 3 is a HUGE improvement over the old Sync 2. The included instructions are straight forward and make it an easy drop-in replacement for the old head unit in my 2014 F150 Platinum. (Installation is only difficult because Ford made the dash/console assembly sequence very strange.)
5 stars for ease of use. Minus one star for the price of these OEM parts.
I'm super happy with the result. -
Easy SYNC 3 upgrade
Expensive but easy upgrade for my 2013 F150 Lariat. Big improvement over SYNC 2. Using the 4Dtech install video on Youtube, it took me about 30 minutes to install the APIM, screen and new USB ports.
