The one that many people are high on right now is the Rockford Fosgate DSR1. To do what you want to do, you`re going to have to look at one of the new Interface products that are available. If your selection is 'No', please let us know in what ways this tutorial didn't apply to you and maybe another solution can be found for others with your same variables.I have an’18 FX4 lariat super crew Sync 3 with navigation.Okay, for starters and for future reference, the head unit in your spec F150 'can`t' be removed even if you wanted to change it because it`s an integral part of the CAN-BUS system. If your selection is 'Yes, but one or more steps needed additional clarification', please let us know which step needed additional clarification, provide that clarification and help the next guy avoid that same confusion.

In another approximately 10 minutes (timing may vary per update), SYNC says “Installation Complete.” SYNC may also say, “Your SYNC system update is complete.While the update is loading, SYNC will not recognize your mobile phone or media device.

It refers to a specific phase of the installation, not the overall update process. You may then use SYNC.” Ignore this message. Please wait up to 10 min until you hear your SYNC system update was completed. Shortly after installation has begun, SYNC says “Your download is in progress and the system may reboot several times during the update. Do not remove your USB drive or turn off your vehicle while this update is in progress. SYNC displays “Installing Application” during the process.SYNC automatically detects the files on your USB drive and then displays “Install Application?” Press OK to confirm.Make sure it is completely plugged into the port.

NOTE: For this version of the SYNC system your USB device needs to be formatted to FAT32 not exFAT! (you will get an error asking you to make sure the install file is in the root directory).The instructions you actually need are located here. I have a 2012 XLT with the basic system - apparently this means pre SYNC 2 - which means the directions Ford gives on the VIN look-up page are wildly inaccurate and I'm just surprised they don't have it better spelled out. Navigate to and check your VIN for updates and download them via the instructions - this is where their instructions stop being accurate.Just did mine and had to do a lot of guessing, sleuth work on the forums, and digging on Ford's page to figure it out.
