Replacing the USB hub is easy. Not plug and play though. You'll need to solder 2 wires (refer to my sync 3 post for exact soldering instructions) Unless the Falcons have the same connectors as the new hub but I highly doubt it.

Sorry to jump in on this post.
I am trying hard to find a way to change my sync 2 2016 wildtrak to a sync3 or even better a after market solution but no one around the gold coast seems to know what to do or how to do it |

Yep. I've done a full upgrade from sync 2 to sync 3 on my 2016 ranger!

I know this is an old thread, but I have managed to get apple CarPlay and android auto installed into my FG-X. Looks the part, that’s for sure. Can’t seem to post a photo. Maybe I can sort Apple CarPlay but can’t sort a photo online. Wonderful ha.
Edit: bought from soso.co.nz - I posted a review on google reviews which includes the photo |

It's not full Sync3, only the Carplay/Android part. But looks pretty slick. P.S. you can upload images to somewhere like imgur.com then post the links here.

I sent an email to the supplier and they have confirmed the FGII Sync2 upgrade unit can be installed in a Territory so just checking if anyone here has used this unit and how did installation go? |

Hi Folks,
New to the SYNC upgrade discussion. I’m looking into the hardware swap out of Sync 2 to Sync 3 for my LZ ST. Does anyone have any advice on what hardware version to buy? As Sync 3 rolled out there would have been hardware revisions no doubt (CPU, RAM video etc) just wondering if there was an ideal hardware version I should be asking my potential supplier to provide so i can get the best Sync 3 experience. Cheers all. |

You could contact these people in New Zealand. I have and they replied back to me.

No I did not. I just asked specifically if would fit an FG-X (which it does). If anything I am leaning towards a Mr FPV unit as linked above. Aeropro also planning to have a FG-X unit development I believe. (For the aftermarket Android H/U's like the FG Mk. I. ) HTH

OK Update.
Manage to find cheap a Ranger Sync3 Unit. Ordered GPS Antenna Havent ordered the USB Media Hub unit yet. Sync3 Head unit 1.jpg Contacted a few places, including Tonkins in Adelaide, A melbourne company who have a lot of exprience in repairs etc. All have told me its a rewire and not straight swap, so wish me luck. Probably try it out in next few days. Sure I will get some errors, no usb hub, no reverse camera and no GPS...... Other bug is FGX is single zone. Sync 3 is for dual zone..... |
