  1. First of all, thanks @Okie for the APIM data. I used it today and so far so good for my limited 2014 Ford Edge. Also Okie inspired me to get creative and use the brackets that came with the standard mount sync 3 that I salvaged from a 2016 Escape with NAV ($147 shipped) to replace my sync 2 recessed screen. It took minimal modification to the in-dash plastic mounts. Simply switch the left bracket with the right bracket that comes on the standard mount sync 3's and you can get the screen to fit perfectly into the dash. Now align the new screen in the dash at the desired height (I used pics of the old unit to make it the same) and mark where to drill holes through the dash plastic for the bracket pegs to go through. Set the screen aside and drill the holes you just marked. Put the unit in the dash and mark the top right and top left mount bracket holes to drill small pilot holes for drywall screws or the likes, which is sufficient to hold the unit firmly in place along with the bracket pegs and dash trim that you will reinstall at the end. Set the screen aside and drill the pilot holes you just marked. Mount the unit with the screws or nuts and bolts of your choosing and you are done! Looks and works perfectly! Cheers! -Dave
