Product details

Replace the factory display in your 2015–2020 Ford F-150 with a 12-inch Sharp touchscreen that runs SYNC 3. The kit plugs into your truck's factory connectors, so climate, vehicle settings and the rest of Ford's built-in features keep working. It fits trucks that left the factory with no SYNC screen (base radio), the 4.2" SYNC 1 display, the 8" MyFord Touch (SYNC 2) or the 8" SYNC 3.

Highlights

Genuine Sharp LS12M05 panel: 12 inches, 1920 × 1200 resolution
Runs SYNC 3 with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto
Plug & play with no wire cutting; most installs take 1–2 hours
Model-specific bezel, new-style vents and factory-style upper dash tray clips, so it looks like it came from Ford
Climate control board sits in a protective enclosure

Choose your package

Most Popular — Ford Blue · Plug & Play: includes a prepared SYNC 3 module (APIM) with the Ford blue interface. Use this package if your truck has no SYNC screen, SYNC 1 or SYNC 2; it is also the simplest swap for SYNC 3 trucks.
Most Flexible — Ford Blue + SYNC 4 Ready: everything in Most Popular, set up so you can move to SYNC 4 later by changing only the module. The screen, bezel, climate controls and vents stay in place.
Entry — Lincoln UI (SYNC 3 trucks only): keeps your truck's own SYNC 3 module and shows the Lincoln-style interface on the new screen. The lowest-cost way to get the 12-inch screen.

Choose your dash

Pick the trim color that matches your interior: Black, Silver or Chrome Grey. Then pick your console: trucks with a front jump seat (middle bench seat) instead of a full center console need a different lower trim piece, which adds $250.

Questions before you buy

Will this kit fit my truck?

It fits the models and years on this page with no SYNC screen (base radio), the 4.2" SYNC 1 display, the 8" MyFord Touch (SYNC 2) or the 8" SYNC 3. Choose your current system in the options.

How hard is the installation?

Easy, about 1–2 hours. It's plug & play with no wire cutting, and the model-specific bezel, trim and new-style vents give a factory look. Trucks with a front jump seat need a different lower trim piece (+$250 option).

What screen is it?

A genuine Sharp LS12M05 12" display, 1920 × 1200.

Does it have Apple CarPlay and Android Auto?

Yes, wired. For wireless, add our USB wireless adapter.

Can I upgrade to SYNC 4 later?

Yes. The SYNC 4 Ready package lets you add a SYNC 4 module later.

How long does delivery take?

Shipping is free in the US. Orders ship from our US or Hong Kong warehouse and usually arrive in 5–10 days; peak season can add 2–5 days. Orders placed before 8 PM Pacific are processed the same day.

Will I pay import duties or customs fees?

No. We cover import duties on US orders. In rare cases the carrier may contact you to help with customs clearance.

What warranty do I get? Does it affect my Ford warranty?

You get our 1-year warranty covering all parts. Installing our parts does not by itself void your Ford factory warranty, but Ford does not cover them, so our warranty does.

What is your return policy?

You can return unused items in the original packaging within 30 days. Because our products are set up for your vehicle, a processing fee (usually 30% of the order) applies if a non-defective order is cancelled after it ships. Return shipping is paid by the customer.

Can you recommend an installer near me?

Yes. Send us your ZIP code and we'll suggest an installer near you.

Why do you need my VIN?

We pre-program the module for your vehicle with your 17-character VIN, so you don't need a dealer visit. Enter it on this page or send it to us after you order.

How do I contact you?

Email info@intelligent1tech.com. We're happy to check your VIN or a photo of your dash before you order.
