The base infotainment system is by far my least favorite thing about the s550. The car looks so sick on the outside and then getting into it and seeing that tiny screen with the buttons really takes away from the car in my opinion. But that sync 3 upgrade looks great along with the red calipers.
I have to agree with you 100% as I did mine last season I bought screen and apim module as well as dash piece from wrecked car cost me $350CAD so couldn't pass it up. Now not only does it look so much nicer but now I have drive modes, I feel bad for those that never get the drive modes as they definitely make difference.
The painted calipers look great; I plan on doing the same thing to mine soon. However, from everything I've read, the base brakes are not made or even designed by Brembo. Brembo makes just the calipers for 2015+ GT Performance Packs, the pads and rotors are still a Ford part. The base calipers evolved off the older 4 piston Brembos from the 13-14 Mustang, but are not identical. They are made by Continental or Ford, depending on who you ask (i.e. significantly heavier, slightly different looks).
Interesting. Either way, I just liked the way the Brembo sticker makes the brakes look. I could've done a pony or a 'mustang' logo, but the Brembo looks so much better.
I have '19 base 5.0 stick shift. Who ever originally bought this car was cheap as f+++. I wanted it because of the Kona blue and the manual trans. Will adding this kit actually give me drive modes ( after the guy programs it)? I should see it already in my cheap center screen but dont. Maybe I dont have that option? One of my center screen windows says it is in sport mode.
My man! I knew you would get that sync 3 screen kit! that thing is a dream! not even gonna bother with an after market stereo bc that setup is so sweet! 3:28 I noticed the pony startup screen didn't come up when you opened your car door like mine does. What gives? Is that going to be set up when the stereo is programmed?
Niice bro! Definitely a smart move to do these things afterwards. As for the brakes.. fake it till you make it I guess LOL Looking forward to more friend! 👍🏻
Hi question! In the video you mention that this does enable auto climate control. I just contacted Hextall and they said that it does not and remains manual climate. Was this the case for you as well? Or were you able to set a number temp ? Hopefully you will see this. Thanks in advance!
Awesome upgrade bro 👌 I went a different and cheaper route with a NAVOS OE Style 4" to 8" upgrade and it's amazing. Another upgrade i did in my s550 was getting a new auto shifter from White Madness Garage and just ties everything together inside, highly recommend brotha
There saying I need all new amplifiers in my mustang to install this and it'll cost $2,500 on top of the $900 for screen how did you install I can't figure it out ...
Hi I want to upgrade my screen and I got an aftermarket stereo but I hate it I love this but was wondering if it’ll work with my car, I have a 2016 V6 mustang
Dang I was looking uyp how to install one of those a few months ago but I thought they mentioned that you had all the functionality besides the drive modes since the car didn't come with them, and yeah no dual zone. Looks so much better though
@@JVette01 sorry brother. I did find it lol 😆. Already contacted them and let them know I found it in your video. Kudos to you for making a video on this. It's as close to the Ford product as I could find. And absolutely amazing how they can install Drive mode.
Hextall is the BEST. I have one of their new kits and it works flawlessly in my 2018. WAY better quality than Hellhorse. All OE parts and they are actually Ford people.
Did this upgrade just have the 3 pieces, bezel, screen, and the white box? and then it all plugged right into the factory stuff? Or was there also a wire harness?
Adding the screen and sync upgrade is a great boost to functionality and the red calipers really pop. Nice!
Thanks!

I agree! The added functionality and the aesthetics is 100% worth it.
May i know how much it cost?
My 2023 Mach 1 comes from the factory with Brembo, I believe you are right that it just refers to the brake pads.

I just like the look, I could care less about status 😂 but yeah the sync 3 was one of my favorite mods
I didn’t see ambient lighting switch
So its just plug and play? No Foescan or coding needed for it to get up and working?
Watch this vid ;) ua-cam.com/video/NYIhmG7YFbI/v-deo.htmlsi=EX1M2CSqfkGYrIih
Does it come with the drive modes without getting the sync 3 or 4 ? On the dash or steering wheel buttons ?

There saying I need all new amplifiers in my mustang to install this and it'll cost $2,500 on top of the $900 for screen how did you install I can't figure it out ...
Why would you need an amplifier? I used how to videos online to install it
@@JVette01 that's what my shop I work with is telling me and I'm trying to show there your video and it's plug and play besides the drive modes ...
You can look up any sync 3 installation video and there’s nothing about an amplifier
Hi I want to upgrade my screen and I got an aftermarket stereo but I hate it I love this but was wondering if it’ll work with my car, I have a 2016 V6 mustang
Probably. Just do some research and look into it
How long does it usually take for them to send the product
I think it was a week or two
@@JVette01 ahh ok cus I ordered mine and it’s been like 8 days, and was starting to get worried😭
what was the price tag on this ????
Around $900
Did the mustang come with the valved muffler? Or did u get it after ?
Mine did not come with active exhaust.
@@JVette01 after the center console upgrade, did you also wired the active exhaust?
@@taekim841 no. mine doesn't have it
If I replace my 4-inch radio with an 8-inch EOM with sync 3, do I have to reprogram it?
You need to program the drive modes and switches. The sync screen will work fine
@@JVette01 who can we have program it.
Did your car have drive modes from the factory with the out unit?
The upgraded one came with the toggles. The stock one did not
@JVette01 thank you for the info
@@JVette01 does the toggles work? Like it’s just plug and play
@@coltandent4599 needs programmed
Dang I was looking uyp how to install one of those a few months ago but I thought they mentioned that you had all the functionality besides the drive modes since the car didn't come with them, and yeah no dual zone. Looks so much better though
I get mine programmed tomorrow, so I will report back once they’re programmed to see if they work like they’re supposed to
@@JVette01 did you download something online from a flash drive or have to go to the dealership?
DM me on Instagram!
Was it just plug and play for the 2019+ model?
I believe so but you will need to double check.
Does the map on apple car play work?
Yes
Where did you buy your sync 3
It’s in the description

Hextall is the BEST. I have one of their new kits and it works flawlessly in my 2018. WAY better quality than Hellhorse. All OE parts and they are actually Ford people.
So drive modes what about exhaust mode
No because I don’t have active exhaust

I have a video going over the paddles and how to use them
how did u program the drive mode switches ?
The guy I got the screen from did it via FORscan and screenshare
👍👍
Let us know when you get the drive modes activated. Would like to see it work.
Yeah, I’ll have to make a follow up video!
I don't even have a Mustang. What a piece of crap, 3" infotainment system. Good job Ford.
4.2” but yes it’s pretty embarrassing
Did this upgrade just have the 3 pieces, bezel, screen, and the white box? and then it all plugged right into the factory stuff? Or was there also a wire harness?
Everything was plug and play for me.
