Hi everybody. Hoping somebody with more knowledge than me can help me with this. Just would like to note that I'm not looking to install an aftermarket system.
I have a 2008 Explorer Eddie Bauer with every option except Sync. The Navigation radio has the Phone button on it, but pressing it does nothing. I want to add Sync to my Explorer. I know there isn't an add-on for a 2008 Explorer. However, I can find most (if not all) of the parts for the Sync system on fordparts.com for a 2008 Explorer, namely:
1. The Sync Module "Audio Accessory Interface Module" (14D212)
2. The USB connector cable (14D202)
3. The bezel that the AUX input and USB connector in the center console sit in (19C149)
4. The steering wheel controls with the Sync phone button (9C888)
That's all I think I need, but that may be wrong.
Basically, my question is this. If I can buy all of the parts for the Sync system, can I install them and get the system functional? I don't understand why Ford would put the "Phone" button on my radio if this wasn't possible, which is why I'm eager to get it working.
Thanks.
