Cannot be happier
I was holding off reviewing this product to see how it worked, and so far, I couldn't be happier. I've been watching this kit for a couple of years for an opportunity to take the plunge. That happened back in February of this year when my 2017 Fusion developed a driveability problem. My mechanic couldn't figure it out, he recommended taking it to the local Ford dealer. They diagnosed it as a bad APIM, (Sync module), with a price tag or $1300 parts and labor. I decided to go with this upgrade instead. Paid the extra charge for the navigation package, too. Installation took about 1 1/2 hours and has worked flawlessly, it even cleared up some of the glitches I've been having leading up to the original APIM diagnosis. Thanks, I love the climate control and bigger screen-Jerry

Thank you!
Thank you for putting together such an amazingly easy to install kit! I was able to install this in record time compared to my previous radio installs.

Amazing conversion kit
First of all I want to thank 4d tech from providing this kit as they seem to be the only reputable company making them. I installed this on my 2017 Fusion Sport. The install takes a some time but is relatively easy. All the connectors are keyed to only fit in the correct socket so you don’t have to worry about causing any electrical problems. The only problem I found was that the large connector that goes to the bezel does not snap in securely, requiring it to be taped in to avoid it falling out. Overall I think it’s worth it for the price and definitely will add value if you plan on selling your car.

Amazing Upgrade
I have a 2017 Fusion SE with the luxury package: LED headlights, heated leather, and the terrible base 4" radio. This upgrade makes such a huge difference. I was so close to getting a really nice aftermarket radio but the available dash kits are ugly or have real quality issues with the HVAC integration. This kit is so seamless, Ford did a really nice job with Android Auto.
It cost $500+ more for this Sync 3 kit than a high end Kenwood AA unit and dash kit, and I still have to replace the Ford ACM with an HD radio capable unit and get a kit to integrate my amplifiers into the factory system. Even though the 8" Sync 3 system is amazing, it's still the same weak unamplified factory radio. Fine for the stock speakers, but the Polks I just installed sound way worse as-is.
So it's more expensive up front and I have to spend even more to integrate the rest of my speakers and amps to get better sound, but I would buy this kit again in a heartbeat. 4D made it so easy to plug and play, the upgrade only took a couple hours and it works flawlessly. I can't say enough about the peace of mind knowing that all the stock functions and controls are running through factory equipment instead of some generic Metra touch screen that they adapt to 50 different vehicles.
The only thing I would like to see added is the option to upgrade to HD Radio. I had to spend $150 to get a different ACM and programmer, and I have to learn how to use FORScan to enable it once it's installed. I'm sure it would cost way more for it to be included in the kit though. Either way, I'm still thrilled with the upgrade! -
Sync3 Upgrade - a must have
This is a complete upgrade from Sync to Sync3 with Ford navigation that I paid additional for. I didn't want to deal with down loading maps, been through that with my other cars. Just wanted a simple plug and play system upgrade for a 2017 Fusion Sport and that is exactly what this is. All my questions were promptly answered by sales staff before my purchase was made. This is simple trim and component removal followed by installation of the harness, navigation antenna and all the new components as shown, completed in less than thirty minutes. Easy to follow directions ending with the CANopener that was plugged into the OBDII as directed. Highly recommend using 4DTech for this conversion rather than piecing components together and using a Chinese made adapter harness.
