If you have music from Android auto and Google maps from Android auto you have the full-screen update for Sync. If you have app selection on the left side, you have the coolwalk update. If you have coolwalk you should also be able be able to make Google maps full screen. If you post a picture I can tell you.

Yup, you have coolwalk. Only app I've been able to actually get full screen is google maps. But from what I've heard they're already doing a lot of updates to coolwalk in beta so who knows if that will change.

Is coolwalk an update that precedes the full screen auto? Which button are you pressing to get the map full screen?

That's a cool looking rack. What brand is it?

Got my raptor steering wheel from Barry last week... I do not have my truck yet, just some parts ready to go when it gets built!!

So the wife, bless her heart, is trying to be apart of my addiction. She bought a hood vent piece she thought would look good on the truck. I'm here to gage opinions since I'm very on the fence; this isn't something I would normally do....so let me hear your thoughts. It's not on yet, just set on top.

I kinda like it!

Full screen alandroid auto was a ford update, cool walk is the android auto side update. Full screen android auto update allows you to run two android auto apps on your acreen at once, before the other part of the acreen was sync. Coolwalk added shortcuts on the left, looks sharper, and let's you go full screen with Google maps. If have Google maps on the left, if you tap the Google maps icon again it should go full screen.

One other thing to note, Coolwalk is a server switch that Google has to turn on, it's not tied to an AA update. One day they just decide its your day and will activate it.

I got the OTA 3.5.3.2 update which gave me full screen android auto about 2 weeks ago, Coolwalk happened earlier this week, so it's just coincidence that they both happened in the order they did, as close to each other as they did.

It actually looks good IMO. But I hate how much water and soap the fake factory vents hold. This one looks like gallons.

Maybe move it forward to align the back edge with the back of the factory vents. I’m kind of on the fence as well

Yeah I thought of this too, I also thought of maybe small drain holes....idk.

I thought of this as well, but I is already way further up than they are due to its size. Would it be weird for it to go halfway up the hood?

Kevin · Feb 12, 2023

I agree on the amount of soap and water they hold. That would be my only concern

Cheif2Slo · Feb 12, 2023

I just don’t wash mine, problem solved!

Dfris · Feb 13, 2023

Here is it lined up with the vents...it may be a little too far forward for me. Thoughts? I'm very 50/50.

ShadowFox · Feb 13, 2023

Finally got line X’d, think it came out very well. Got the “premium” stuff which allegedly protects better against UV and stays black longer.

I like it but that very bottom pic I think it is way to far back, need to come forward more.

No photos but installed the BuiltRight Industries seat back release for the rear driver seatback and the oil drain cover for the Raptor transmission bash/skid plate.
