Full screen carplay? YUP

[JHForman812]

Fuck me gently with a chainsaw. The heated steering wheel button in an accessible place.

Thank you, sir, for figuring out this is possible.

I cant take any credit for it because I dont have a way to do the software updates. I hang out on the F150 forums a lot and watch the sync 4 threads. once I saw they got full screen carplay and the unreal engine I asked Jesse if there was a way to get the software in my super duty. The solution was an F150 APIM so here we are lol

We talking a 10” bar or 84” bar or somewhere in between?

In order to accomplish this youll have to get an APIM from a 21 F150 with 12" screen and send it to someone(ill give names if theres actually any interest) to get the software updated. SOMEDAY Ford might send out an APIM update that turns this on but I got tired of waiting and just did what I needed to get it done. I paid 160$ for the used APIM.

Do you mind sharing the part number?

I got this off ebay it was for an F150 12" screen from Replacement radios(thats the seller). I kept watching till I found one in my price range that I was willing to spend(200 was my max that I was willing to experiment with).

@JHForman812 you mind hooking an Android up to that screen and showing it? Just can't bring myself to go to the iPhone. My ecosystem at home is all apple, but just absolutely dislike the iPhone..

 

[JHForman812]

yeah lemme see if one of my android co workers will come hang out for a minute

That looks great, does it automatically change back to 'white mode' when the sun load sensor detects enough ambient light?

Thanks!! What trim level? This looks like it is adding the controls on screen as well as console...

yes if I put it in auto. I like the night mode personally

Lariat, and the climate bar can be turned on or off. I liked it better than the climate menu on the right side of the screen. I guess its a little redundant.

After this APIM, inverter upgrade, and in-dash K-cup brewer, life will be complete.

I'm waiting for one of you guys to switch to a F450 front for improved turning radius...
