Default 4” to 8” sync swap

I have a 2018 XLT and recently upgraded from the 4” screen to the 8” screen and so far everything has been plug and play but for some reason my backup camera isn’t working.

Search Sync 3 here on the site there are a ton of posts on the conversion.

Sync 3 APIM and Screen you want the flat sided screen
USB HUB
These first 2 items can be found on ebay or car-part You can typically find them cheaper on car-part. The last few I've done have been getting parts from salvage yards and whole conversions have been around $350

GPS antenna (this is the one I've used for retrofits)
GPS Antenna GPS Antenna

Power adapter from Sync 2 (Gen 2A) to Sync 3 Hub. These can be found on ebay for around $10.

@TexasFording , brand new to this forum so I couldn't figure out how to send a PM. I'd love to speak with you about upgrading to Sync 3 if you have the time. Could you PM me - can't find the button option!
