nath_s_l Posted September 17, 2013 Share Posted September 17, 2013 Hi, i have a ford fiesta 2009 titanium model. I am looking to update the lcd screen to make it more of a sat nav/ hub. I have seen alot of third party devices that claim to do the job. But wondered if i could use the exisiting technology ford offers from one of ther later models (myford sync) and use this to replace my existing one. So in general use the later technology ford offers in there later more recent fiestas and retrofit this equipment into my existing 09 fiesta. If this is posible could tou please give me information on how todo this? Or if not could you advise of a good solution to my problem other than purchasing a whole new foesta? Also i would like the system to be integrated and not an attatchment if possible? Thanks in advance.. Nathan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nath_s_l Posted September 17, 2013 Author Share Posted September 17, 2013 Ahhh, ok then, I wanted a solution to an integrated hub that would have bluetooth, sat nav an interact with the controls from steering wheel and stuff like that.
