Modernize the interior of your 2013–2014 Ford F-150 or Gen 1 Raptor with a complete OEM-style SYNC 2 to SYNC 3 conversion kit.
Designed specifically for trucks already equipped with the factory 8-inch SYNC 2 touchscreen, this kit replaces the outdated SYNC 2 system with Ford’s much more modern SYNC 3 interface while maintaining the clean, factory appearance of your interior.
The upgrade adds the modern features owners actually want, including Apple CarPlay, Android Auto, an improved touchscreen interface, available factory navigation, faster system operation, and modern smartphone connectivity.
Best of all, the system is designed around OEM Ford components and arrives configured for your vehicle for a clean, plug-and-play installation.
Upgrade Your Factory SYNC 2 System
The factory 8-inch SYNC 2 system found in 2013–2014 F-150s and Raptors was impressive when these trucks were new, but the technology has become noticeably dated.
SYNC 3 provides a significant improvement in both usability and functionality.
The newer interface is cleaner, faster, and easier to navigate while adding smartphone integration that isn't available through the original SYNC 2 system.
Instead of replacing your factory infotainment system with an aftermarket head unit, this conversion allows you to retain an OEM Ford appearance and factory-style functionality.
Apple CarPlay & Android Auto
One of the biggest advantages of upgrading to SYNC 3 is the addition of Apple CarPlay and Android Auto.
Connect a compatible smartphone and access many of your favorite applications directly through the factory-style 8-inch touchscreen, including:
-
Apple Maps
-
Google Maps
-
Waze
-
Spotify
-
Pandora
-
Phone Calls
-
Messages
-
Music & Audio
-
Other Compatible CarPlay / Android Auto Apps
This makes navigation, music, phone calls, and everyday smartphone functions considerably easier to access while you're on the road.
Wired or Wireless CarPlay & Android Auto
Choose between OEM-style wired Apple CarPlay / Android Auto or an available built-in wireless configuration.
The wireless option utilizes a specialized USB hub with wireless functionality built directly into the hub, allowing compatible devices to connect without having to plug your phone in every time you get in the truck.
Wireless-equipped hubs also feature both USB-C and standard USB connectivity.
OEM Ford SYNC 3 Hardware
This isn't simply an aftermarket radio made to fit your dash.
The conversion utilizes OEM Ford SYNC 3 hardware for maximum compatibility, reliability, and factory-style integration.
The package includes an OEM SYNC 3 touchscreen and OEM SYNC 3 APIM along with the necessary supporting components to properly convert your existing SYNC 2 system.
The result is an upgrade that looks and operates much closer to something Ford could have installed from the factory.
VIN-Specific Programming
Your SYNC 3 APIM is programmed specifically for your vehicle's VIN and equipment configuration.
This helps ensure supported vehicle features, functions, and factory options operate correctly after the conversion.
Your VIN must be provided when ordering.
Vehicle-specific programming eliminates much of the guesswork associated with attempting to piece together a SYNC 3 conversion using individually sourced components.
Navigation & Non-Navigation Options
Choose between Navigation and Non-Navigation SYNC 3 configurations depending on your preference.
The Navigation configuration provides integrated Ford navigation directly through SYNC 3.
If you choose the Non-Navigation version, you can still use navigation through Apple CarPlay or Android Auto with compatible applications such as:
Apple Maps • Google Maps • Waze
For many owners, smartphone-based navigation provides everything needed for everyday driving while maintaining all of the other benefits of SYNC 3.
Plug-and-Play Installation
The conversion is designed to be as straightforward as possible.
The necessary components are configured to work with the factory system, allowing for a plug-and-play installation with no cutting or splicing of the factory wiring required.
This makes the conversion an excellent option for owners who want modern technology without permanently modifying the truck's factory wiring harness.

The complete conversion package includes the applicable components necessary to upgrade your factory SYNC 2 system to SYNC 3:
-
OEM Ford SYNC 3 8" Touchscreen

Certain modified features are intended for off-road or stationary use only. The driver should never operate video playback or other distracting functions while the vehicle is being driven.
Perfect Upgrade for Gen 1 Raptor Owners
The 2013–2014 Ford F-150 SVT Raptor has aged extremely well, but its factory infotainment technology is one area where its age definitely shows.
This SYNC 3 conversion is one of the best ways to modernize a Gen 1 Raptor without changing the character of the interior.
You retain the clean Ford factory appearance while gaining the smartphone connectivity and modern interface expected from a newer vehicle.
Whether you're restoring a low-mile Gen 1, building a dedicated desert truck, or simply daily driving your Raptor, this upgrade makes the interior significantly more enjoyable to use.
