I've been communicating over the last couple years with David Garn, but the determination basically ended with, I'm SOL, I can't return mine back to stock, so I'm just... stuck with it. For clarity, I was a victim of the Windows program updating and showing I instead had a token available after...

I'm not sold on it; both did what I needed them to do; never had a problem with my 8"; 12" already quit working, so back on the still-functioning 8". Yeah, it's a larger screen, but off-road it's a lot harder to hit the button your finger is actually trying to hit, where it's far easier to brace...

Nice work finding way cheaper parts than buying them direct from Ford! Of course, I was stuck buying from them back in early '22. Glad to see the parts costs have removed at least a zero. Might be worth my while to buy another 12" screen since mine gave up on life already, but that also was a...

Looks fantastic... and vaguely familiar; except my 12" screen died so I am back with the 8" screen. That blue trim lighting looks amazing too, as does the white fun! Got some good powder here in MN too. If there's anything you need for help programming, I try to make myself available as quickly...

Do you remember the FP engineer who was able to help you out? I have had less than satisfactory assistance with mine; same issue, 2.3L. Last email I got was literally sending them the stock calibration file that is the "performance tune" and unable to read ECM error trying to go back to stock...

Should, but what you can do to ease some of the possible incompatible programming blocs, is to fix the 3 lines to make the VIN match what vehicle it's in, the you can also using Forscan, write as-built data which it will pull from Ford, and make the minor adjustments from there. You may get...

I haven't tried a junkyard pull, but it should already have the original vehicle's programming. When it's physically installed, in Forscan (Forscan.org) you will need to go into the APIM, and towards the very bottom will be the donor's vin, split into 3 lines. You should change that to the...

You know it! Sharing is caring

7GHC-KQQZ-QW94-KMMT-JWK5 Code is available for the first taker, for FDRS; I'm done with it

Noice!!! For anyone who doesn't know how best to eye your local junkyards, use this link: Car-part

Alright, so I changed the backup camera option from the HD or digital option, to the SD or "non-HD" camera option; where did you get the power from to "power" the second power wire the 12" requires? Also might be part of the programming, so you MIGHT need FDRS to see whether it's looking for the...

Yo, just wanna put it out there that I'm fairly convinced y'all can do this cheaper, and I "voiced" that to @bez2002 that I am VERY confident it can be done by replacing the screen, dash, and the 4-pin power wire to the screen from the APIM in your 8", with the 6 wire with 2x power and 2x ground...

I got blown up by an artillery shell in Iraq, '03 initial push homie; I always hurt lol Thanks, and also, a huge shout out to you for your help to, @mpeugeot!!!!!

Once you got past your own uncertainty, it was pretty easy, wasn't it? Just screws and money. I didn't ask, but could you put the list of part numbers that you installed up? I'm pretty sure I replaced way more parts (including a modified antenna cable end) than I did. I also think it can be...

Thus far my perspective is, in MN; people who have ridden and there are some awesome trails. I'm on here mainly for doing the 8-12" swap, but have yet to meet up. I personally and Forest Lake area, Twin cities MN. Been to Nemadji myself twice, but my Bronco, "Shadowmere," has been there at least...
