Very nice how how it adds a full android device while still using and being able to keep the original ford sync computer. I thought this thing would be entirely replacing ford sync.
You sir are obviously a Techie. 99% of the complaints I see on these units are things that can be turned on or off in the system settings. I have told many people if you are not good with computers and knowledgeable on software mechanics? This unit is not for you. Good review sir.
awesome brother. looking forward to that install vid...i think you've just made up my mind...:D
I have been looking for one to buy. Wow! this made my day.
I need android model to buy.
I have a 2020 fusion. I want this, but with apple play. I love this.
Just order one for my 2014 Fusion. Not sure if I'm gonna try to install it myself yet. Can't wait to get it!!
How was it?
@@davidmiller2325 I just installed it on Monday. It was pretty easy. I do recommend getting the plastic tool to remove your molding. Made it easy and doesn't scratch or damage it. I used a cordless screwdriver also. Much faster that way. I also recommend watching the Phoenix automotive video, it shows what plugs are used. They have a lot of stuff you don't need. Hope this helps.
thanks for this video G fr
Appreciate you fam
which app do you use to screen mirror your phone? is it on wifi or do you plug it in?
also how about wireless android auto? i just installed mine a week ago and have only been using android auto through sync with the small screen i want full screen and would prefer to not have to plug in every time
🔥🔥🔥
I saw your install video do you still have to install the ac motherboard? Or is it all just plug and play?
Did you have to buy a aftermarket wire harness to hook up your amp and subs ?
I have a 2017 ford fusion im about to order the monitor and the stars for my celling thanks for the ideas.
I also have a 2017 , have you installed it yet ?
^
What did you have to do in order for your AC & factory backup camera to work properly
Can you change to different wall papers from the ones it has on there that I see
That looks quick. Few yrs ago in bought one and was highly disappointed. It was so slow and leggy. Sent it back (twice)
It's worth it you don't even need to answer those questions for me but l take it.
What are you running your aftermarket amp and subs too
Can you control the heated seat?
Two questions, can you change and reposition the homescreen items. Upload a custom wallpaper. And does Google apps work with it like maps and such. When you did the backup camera did you retain the stock one. Also does your steering wheel buttons work with it. What all did you order just the radio or what extras
1. You can do system’s update on it to change the look plus wallpaper
2. Google apps work with everything long as you have a hotspot such as your phone
3. Steering wheel still works an you keep the factory back up camera
4. I only ordered the radio that is all you need
I agree with you.. I don't know why they don't come built into the cars already. I put one in my truck and it's so much nicer. The only glitch I have is it cuts back to the home screen, from the console screen on its own, from time to time? Do you ever have that happen? I feel like it's a setting I haven't figured out yet🤔
Naw maybe once n awhile it’ll change stations on its own. But it nt a big deal
Hello,
I write from Germany and Tesla screen doesn’t exist here.
Are in USA any other brands who selling Tesla screens for the Ford Fusion?
How does google maps works? Do you get live traffic on the radio?
What about the heat steering wheel control
Which oem option do I choose I have 2.5 2016 se
Do these fusion units have slots for a SIM card
Is the factory camera a lot more blurry now?
Thank you for the brief review! Why does the screen look yellowish though?
The camera he was using
Can you add the Apple car play to it to link your iPhone or can you just do normal sync and blue tooth your phone and can you also put google maps on it cause I don’t have anything android based and I just wanna be able to if possible link up Apple car play for it
Does GPS work with out connection to phone? how does the antenna situation work?
Does the voice work on google search bar. like can I hit the MIC icon and say something like idk Local Weather and it will fill it in the search bar
💪🏾💪🏾💪🏾💪🏾
Is this compatible with the 2014 Ford Fusion titanium
How’s the Bluetooth connectivity? Sound good? Lose connection at all? I see so many people saying they got the extras for apple CarPlay and android auto and I can’t imagine those extras are necessary
They not necessary unless you want apple car play. I don’t have it in mine I still the usb in the arm rest for music but the Bluetooth work an sounds good.
Just got a 2015 ford fusion with this installed. It comes on instantly every time. Mine loads on google maps tho, i dont see the screen you have. Is there options for that?
Yo fammo DOPE DOPE INSTALLMENT!!! I just got a 2017 fusion myself... Which one do I actually click on? Meaning the Phoenix website....?
13.6
The 13.6 screen fits models 2013-2020. Plus someone from Phoenix will contact you for all the info they need to get you straight
How long it take to receive it ?
Will this work with the heated steering wheel?
I went to get a stereo I was told there is no stereo up grade for my 2013 flex
Does it still work to this day?
Nice bro , I have 2 questions , 1- do I need Internet for gps ?
2- do I need internet for the radio ? I wanna get this tablet lol
1.yea need it for gps
2. You dont need it for the radio
do you need the acm?
Placed a order on May 25th today they contacted me May 31st stating that this radio is being phased out due to alot issues and that I have to wait 2 months for them to make a new one with android 10 instead of 9
Dang sorry to hear that
Where is there a spot for a SIM card in this unit?
Did you go to your local Ford or did you go to a audio store to install? My 2014 doesn’t have a reverse camera and really want this specific one with a camera. :)
I did my own video. I have a install video im shootin next week
Thanks for asking a great question
I have a 2016 Fusion. Can these be ordered in different sizes. I can’t see in the video but it looks like it blocks the storage space…
13” is the only size that I would recommend because it’s has the faster start up time
Nice install. Will it still play youtube, Netflix, etc while you are driving?
Yea
Does your backup camera still look clear? I just installed mine and the backup camera is blurry now
on mine everything through the car looks a little grainy/stretched out (radio climate camera) not the worst but it could be one of the input settings maybe I just installed it but saw some videos referencing backup cameras not working
How has the radio held up this far. I’m 20 and just got a ‘14 Ford Fusion this year and knew this was a mod I wanted, your first video was what put me onto fusions tbh. Should I pull the trigger or has there been any issues?
Also did you get any add ons with yours?
Still working amazing. I didn’t do any add ons
@@ljraww9064 thank so much. Also does the steering wheel buttons still work with it? Like right when you hook it up?
Yes they still work
How long did it take for it to come in after ordering
Close to a month
Did you buy any add ons like the wireless apple play or do you need anything extra. I wanted to buy the reverse camera and install it as well so I know I’ll need that add on for sure but is there anything else you suggested?
I didn’t do apple car play because I don’t car for it. But you still can connect your phone to it through Bluetooth or usb
@@ljraww9064 we’re you able to use google maps without any add ons? If so how? thanks for your quick response !
Yea you use your phone as a hotspot.
@@ljraww9064 thank you! Did you install the camera at all ? And I seen you said it comes with it ?
My car came with a camera already. It plug straight up.
That’s good stuff. I’m looking to get one on my 2020 fusion. Does Apple car play work ? Also does it get over the air updates ?
Yes apple car play does work with it. Ik a few ppl who has it. Because I don’t won’t apple car play.
@@ljraww9064 nice!!!!! Thanks for the reply really digging your channel I just got my fusion and I’m looking to do mods to it
@@paulnunez8033 your goin to enjoy the journey
Where’s the install video? I can’t find it
Installed Huge 13.6 Inch Tesla Screen In A 2013 Ford Fusion! | Unboxing
czcams.com/video/sCqHcm3XS6g/video.html
How are the audio settings with having a system
Do they make a radio for 2013 Lincoln Mkz?
I'm in Charlotte brother, maybe we could do some videos together. I own the titanium 2.0L
Hit me on ig fam @ljraww
Does the reverse camera function work properly? (If equipped)
Yea same as it always did
Show a video with you playing Apple Music or Tidal. Does it show album cover and info when using those streaming apps
Yes the art show ik ppl who has Apple car play.
I didn’t get the apple car play add on because i dont care for it. But ik others who did.
@@ljraww9064 WHy would you? lol it would be stupid. If you wanted that you would have bought a kenwood not one of these high tech tablets. Android Auto/Carplay on one of these units is like driving a corvette with your foot on the break. It does nothing but limit them. The people asking need to just go buy a kenwood. These units are not for them
Hello, I recently bought this screen for my 2013 Fusion car, I have a problem, I can't connect the audio of the screen, but I was able to connect the SYNC and the amplifier,how can i solve this audio problem?
Did you figure out out my audio works fine with radio but bt only one speaker works
Will it work on 2021
Whatsup man Great install! I just have a few questions because I am about to buy mine as we speak . 1. How long did it take to arrive ?2. Can I connect my phone to this device and play music as I would normally?3. How difficult was it installing this device ?
It took 2-3weeks plug an play and yes you can connect via usb or Bluetooth as usual easy to install
@@ljraww9064 What about connecting via headphone jack? I have the IFI Diablo DAC. It needs to connect in the headphone jack . Bluetooth audio is horrible.
Dose it only come in one size or can you get one a little shorter so you can use the Cigarette lighter and the storage behind it
They are one size unfortunately
Did you install a aftermarket back up camera with it too?? If so how hard was it?
Mine already had the backup camera but they not hard to install
Will this work with a 2018 ford fusion sport 4 inch screen with heated seats will the heated seats work with this
And can I use a apple phone with this
Does the nav work through the cluster display like the OG nav does?
Yes
@@ljraww9064 Sweet deal bro! Thanks for the response. You should checkout the reddit ford fusion sub. Your videos get referenced there and we have like 9K members.
Two questions bro.
One~ does it work with iPhone???
Two~ can you watch. Loves while you’re driving via your usb stick???
Movies****
Yes an yes.
I have a iphone. An videos work while driving
Bro can you help me my car has same screen but I have voice problem no voice it’s showing voice 4 but I think it’s mute can you help me please
Does Fordpass still work with it? Like the remote start from your ohone or remote unlock lock from your phone
Yes
So how do the factory door speakers sound now that you have that radio
Better than before.
Do you know if apple carplay is compatible with this system? It's very modern but android based so I'm not sure. Thanks in advance!
Yes it is. You can add it on at checkout
Im sold. If you have a bad APIM will I need to get that replaced before I install Tesla radio?
The radio will still work. What do your factory radio not do now?
@@ljraww9064 Appreciate the reply bro. Well the Audio is off. Voice controls are not working. Takes a long time to connect any Bluetooth. The screen freezes up too.
Yea you might wanna fix that first honestly
@@ljraww9064 good look.
I had a question does the audio come straight from the tablet or goes around the speakers in the car ??
Speakers
Does the music play through your car speakers or the monitor?
Car speakers bro
This is cool, what was the cost?? Does it do Android Auto??
Do the back up camera still work on the Tesla screen?
Lol nvm
Do you have an install video, I have 2015 ford taurus
Yes
Do you still have back up cam with the screen
My factory camera plugged up to the screen and yes it still works
does is matter which AC you selected ?
Yes an no because the company will contact you an ask for a pic of your dashboard an radio with it on.
Will it work if you have heated or heated and cool seats?
Good question I also want to know the answer and can you still control colored led light inside car
@@ImRolon did you find the answers to those?
@@JRDNGIXX yes it does will work on heated and cooled seats and led light of you have the sport
Do you gotta use hotspot for Waze too ?
Yes
Do you think this would work for the 2013 ford taurus
The company I brought it from make them for different car they may have one for you car.
Can you play Xbox cloud on this?
Can you tell us the boot time this radio need to be functional, I mean from open the door
No boot time fam the new one is instant
@@ljraww9064 that's good 👍
