Who we are

We started SimplyMichigan in 2019 because we were just like you and wanted to upgrade our vehicle to Sync 3 but didn't think $2,400 (the typical price at the time, via one of our .com competitors) was a fair price... and we still don't! We began selling hardware on eBay and have slowly evolved since then. We've built a reputation for selling quality hardware at a fair price. All of our competition claim that their products/services are the "best value" but their products are still over $1,000 for a complete kit (while ours are $600-$800). That company that use to sell their hardware for $2,400, still to this day sells theirs for nearly $1,800. We'll always continue to try to give you the best hardware and service possible for a fair price.

Screen Fitment Guide

Unsure what screen type your vehicle has? No problem! Use the guide below to see if your vehicle has a standard screen or a recessed screen. Have questions? Please don't hesitate to ask us for help. You may use a different screen type if you wish however screen bracket modification will be required (must drill new holes for most vehicles, use double sided 3M VHB tape for Ford Edge)

Conversion Kits

Complete your hardware bundle and enjoy the use of Sync 3, Apple CarPlay, Android Auto, Google Maps, Waze and more with this plug and play conversion kit from SimplyMichigan, these fit a range of different Ford and Lincoln vehicles. This includes everything you need to upgrade from Sync 2 to Sync 3. This kit is automatically added to the order (unless it's removed) and we'll select the kit you'll need based on your vehicles model and year with your VIN.

Conversion Kits May Include:

• Sync 3 compatible USB Hub
• USB Hub Bezel
• Sync 3 USB Conversion Harness
• Compatible GPS Antenna

• Do you provide programming? Does this include programming? Yes! We do provide programming and this purchase includes it. Please provide your VIN at checkout if you decide to purchase
• Can you ship to my country? Can you change the maps? Can you change the language? We're currently shipping to the United States and Canada; all other international shipping we're currently doing through eBay's Global Shipping Program. We can change the maps for any region in the world.
• Does this work with my vehicle? If you have a Sync 2 / MyFordTouch system (8" display), then yes, this will work
• Are there any issues with steering wheel controls or the backup camera? No, as long as you have your module properly programmed everything should work normally. If you have a F-150 Raptor, your front camera will continue to work but it will involve an extra step to activate it
• Do non-navigation units still need a GPS antenna? Yes, non-navigation units still require a GPS antenna. They still have built in compasses and it is still needed for other system functions
• Are these really plug and play? For the most part, yes! This is a very easy modification to do if you have an 8" Sync 2 system already. You'll just take your dash apart, remove the old Sync 2 unit, attach the GPS antenna somewhere in your dash and plug in your new Sync 3 system. You'll also pull out your old USB hub and replace it with the new Apple CarPlay and Android Auto compatible version.
• I'm doing a Sync 2 to Sync 3 conversion, I have a Lincoln vehicle and the brackets don't fit, the yellow screen connector is in the way. What do I need to do to be able to install it? With some older Lincoln vehicles you may have to trim your original screen brackets to be able to clear the repositioned screen connector
• Do you sell hardware from 2016 model year vehicles? We don't offer APIM's from 2016 donor vehicles; the 4 biggest APIM model numbers that you typically see are GXXX-14G370-BM, GXXX-14G370-BL, GXXX-14G370-CM and GXXX-14G370-CL. These are generation1 modules and have a higher failure rate that Ford is aware of and fixed in later generations. So far, we're the only seller on eBay that will disclose this to you
• Will upgrading effect my SiriusXM subscription? No, your subscription will stay intact as this upgrade will not change your SiriusXM ID
• My Sync 2/MyFordTouch display works perfectly. Can I use that screen and just buy a module for Sync 3? Unfortunately you can't use your existing screen to upgrade, the technologies and screen connectors are different
• My vehicle has an instrument cluster display in the dash (on the sides of the speedometer) of the vehicle which displays road names, speed limits, etc. Will this feature be retained when upgrading to Sync 3? Unfortunately there are some incompatibilities with Sync 3 and these instrument cluster displays. Depending on your vehicle and the firmware version for these displays you may lose these features and only a compass will be displayed (or this information may only be present when you have an active navigational destination set)

Chinese Counterfeits - Consumer Advisory

Beware of APIM modules coming from Overseas/China. The United States is FLOODED with fake Chinese "parts built" Sync 3 APIM modules. These can be found everywhere from eBay, Amazon, and even other .com companies selling Sync 3 conversions. It's hard to tell the difference between an authentic module and one of these parts built modules if you don't know what you're looking for. Most of these parts built modules either don't come with the proper labels on the APIM or if they do, are faked. A lot of the ones I've personally seen have a part number that start with an H for example (Hxxx-14G370-xxx -- H signifies it's from a 2017 vehicle) and it will say it was built in 2019 or 2020... which would be impossible. Even if you aren't purchasing from us, please be cautious from who you purchase your hardware from.
