Ford Fiesta 09 Lcd/ Sat Nav Upgrade Myford Sync And Bluetooth

[nath_s_l]

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..

You don't want Sync, just search the forums and see all the issues people have.

I'll second that. Sync is cack.

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.

Is here anything you would recommend?

eBay would be the place. Lots of head units that will do what your asking

I looked at getting one of these.

I have the standard CD player fitted into the titanium with and aux lead, no phone button and no Bluetooth/ voice commands.

I would like to add the phone and voice commands if possible? And also USB cable and larger LCD hub.

I have the device needed to program the computer (what you plug into the car to read/ and rewrite the system)

Just wanto know the steps involved and a guide/ tutorial

Thnx

When installed Usb / voice control into my focus it was plug and play. All ford parts.
