Thanks
Only setting I'm aware of for GPS antenna is this:
7D0-03-01 x*xx xxxx xxxx GPS Mount Type: 0=Roof Mount, 1=IP Mount (no heated windshield), 2=IP Mount (heated windshield), 3=Windshield (non-heated), 4=Windshield (heated)

I have no issues doing the installation my self, just don't know what to order, do you have a ford part number?
Yes you can, you need an indented screen though and the programming is different. I replied to your PM. I just sold my last two units but will have another one wednesday.

So I have a 15 XLT with the 4.2" screen. I can obviously go to Infotainment.com and order the full kit but it's 2k and I think I can put it together for less.

Is there a guide with part numbers for a 4.2" to 8" Sync 3 upgrade?

Thanks - I did see that. I guess for those of us that that are using the after market GPS antennas we'd want option 1 or 2.

My issue turned out to be a bad antenna.

Added a new tutorial to my signature. Instead of using an aftermarket GPS antenna there is a splitter that is available. I tried to get one back in Nov '16 but the dealer never fulfilled the order so I reordered it earlier this week. And installed it today.

No need to upgrade the antenna for those that have a '15?
