Did the Lincoln screen swap

Correct, the bezel is beefy as hell. BUT, the screen seems much bigger to me.

For anyone withany problems with android auto after the swap, I was able to fix my initilazation problem tonight by clearing the data and cache of the android auto app on my phone. Seems it was causing a problem for the sync system with the new layout.

That black is the bezel around the screen. It's physically the same screen as the 10" vertical, so has the same amount of wasted screen around it.

OK, thanks so that 1 inch or so that is black on the screen is black on all of them ??

yup, such is life. But I fully think this upgrade is worth it.

I made the mount for mine out of 1/2" aluminum stock, swapped in the 8" vent trim and cut the original shroud to fit. One of the guys who does 3D printing is working on trim for the bottom, it will look pretty good when done. Saved me from ordering a 25 just for the infotainment system that I hated so much. It's a night and day difference. I did get the screen and 8" trim from eBay.

any chance you can tell me the length of the top mount that you cut?
