Gotta be expensive if it's replacing the climate controls too.

A couple of threads regarding Linkswell & Phoenix products (see below)...my local audio provider tells me the Linkswell product is not available to the public yet...nervous about the Phoenix product myself.

The chinese characters on the bottom of the pics make me scared and it is probably junk. More interesting is the trim level of the truck in the pictures. Appears lariat since it has 4A and leather yet it isn't keyless, it has the small display by the gauges, it also has the upfitter switches.

One photo is of a raptor and other is a platinum.

See link posted by Saleen S331, and read post 28 by Ecobo0sted in that thread.
It's a cool looking unit, but nowhere near as capable as an OEM head unit.

They make a raptor with a key in the steering column still? That key is what threw me off on which trim it was. Also a raptor with the small display by the gauges is absolutely not in any of the new raptors I have seen.

Not interested in that unit but I see they make an aftermarket factory-like nav addition for Sync 3. No prices anywhere though.

You haven't seen a 800A raptor.
