Just a week ago I bought a 2016 Ford Fusion SE 2.5L with 8” screen and without navigation to replace a 2013 SE that was recently totaled. Not sure which Sync I have. Still trying to find out how I can find out that info. I had been searching for a CarPlay upgrade for my car so I could use the nav on my iPhone. I’d found a unit that looked OEM and a KZbin site that gave excellent detailed instructions on how to install it. I was all set that that was what I was going to get, even though it cost $1,600! Ouch! Then I just happened to find this video(thanks KZbin algorithm!) Not only is this unit a beautiful unit, but it also upgrades the look of the car! This unit costs A LOT less, according to the Phoenix website. And lastly and in my opinion the best part, is that Dito Cardona did an absolutely EXCELLENT job with this tutorial! Though I’ve never done anything like this before, and never thought I could, after watching Dito’s video, I actually think I CAN do this install and I’m 67! Oh yeah, actually I did watch 2 other videos about a similar unit but for a tutorial they were both garbage! Went way too fast and didn’t lay out all the steps like Dito did. DITO, if you’re reading and responding to comments I’d like to know, since there appears to be multiple versions of this unit on the Phoenix website, although only one is available at this time. Is that the one that you have? 64g of rom? Anyway, great tutorial video! Would love to see one by you doing a dash cam hardwire into the cabin fuse box.

Do u have the Sony system in your car? If it's a 2016 it should be sync 2 like mine. But mine is the Energi Titanium with the Sony system. Believe it or not the unit he just installed is actually extremely outdated by software standards. The one I have is Android 13 his is only Android 9. Mine is 5g high speed with the Snapdragon CPU which runs at lightning speed. U can get it in sync 2 or 3 or 4. As for your dash cam u don't need to wire it directly to the fuse box. All the power u need is behind the head unit

I too was very cautious about Android head units in general and especially about this company. I did a ton of research and interviewed a few people online who had posted about theirs that were the same unit as the one I needed. Mine is a for a Ram 4th gen. I've been nothing but pleased and it's been over 4 months since I've installed mine. I setup a shortcut on my iPhone so hotspot always turns on whenever my phone connects to bluetooth and the head unit is ready to play music as soon as I drive away. I haven't had any issues with it at all. Took just over a month for delivery.
