Just wondering how was programming the new system like. I know in the video they to contact them about programming for the different models.
The only programming that is needed is for the NAV for the folks that don’t already have NAV. In that instance you would need programming to add all features for NAV.
If you already have NAV it should all operate as normal.
Mine was completely plug and play. No extra programming. I already had nav. The new screen even booted up with all my previously saved stations.

That’s good if so, I’m pretty sure I have nav as I have access to it on my dash

When you order your screen, they will ask for your VIN, and the new APIM comes programmed exactly as your vehicle was built.

Got mine up and running - looks awesome. Aside from the size increase which I love, the screen is way more sharp and vibrant.
Not cheap but very happy with the upgrade.

I received mine today. Took advantage of the warm day yesterday to take the dash apart. I am very pleased with it so far. Shout out to @Schwaggle. His thread made me believe it was possible.

Noice! Love the red accents too! Looks like the "Rapid Red" of my wifey's Tremor!I received mine today. Took advantage of the warm day yesterday to take the dash apart. I am very pleased with it so far. Shout out to @Schwaggle. His thread made me believe it was possible.
So; not so hard to do, is it? Lots of M7 head trim screws and torx 40 for the handles. I actually found the problem (no solution yet) to my navigation going crazy (since mine was a base, no nav, no nothing but SiriusXM lol): I need to find a way to calibrate the gyro in mine. What route did you go? Buy all parts or the kit?

Sorry about not being active the last few weeks, but yeah finally!! Jesse @ infotainment was awesome. the short of it was 2 bad inline apim harnesses. the 3rd & new style harness for this kit is an inline to the hero switches to get 12v power to the display.
I am in total agreement about Jesse being awesome. He sent me the new harness, but while I had him on the phone I also inquired about an ACM to add HD Radio to my mid package bronco. He told me he had one on the shelf and that he would sell it to me and ship it with the harness. He gave me a great discount on it, and I installed it today. My audio is now COMPLETE!!!!
