OK I tried to do a thread search but the info is so scatterbrained, would be GREAT if things like "how to add x" could be compiled in the first post including what parts you may need.
I have a '17 XL with STX, so I have Sync3. I want to see about adding Navigation, but my truck does not have the SD cart slot and USB ports in the center console storage, just the two front USB ports under the a/c controls. Is it possible to still add NAV?

getting the nav hardware can be very expensive.
I use android auto and it works great.

Edit: added your question to the FAQ section of the tutorial
Edit #2: when I went to respond, no other responses were showing until I posted and now see many so it wasn't my intent to pile on to the other responses.

The other day I said I'd find out what the description for the following address/value is that seems to alleviate problems for guys doing the Halogen to OEM LED setup. This is the description that the other software I have states for this address bit.
726-26-02 xxxx xxx* xxxx - Frequency Select Cfg
Options:
0=Type 0 (default for factory LED)
1=Type 1 (default for factory Halogen)
2=Type 2
3=Type 3
I realize this description is vague but that's what it says so this is the description that will be added to the spreadsheet for consistency. I'm unsure what Type 2/3 do so I'll leave that up to others to experiment and post any observed differences.

I've been watching this thread hit and miss and I'm a bit lost. Is this to fix the issue with the LED headlamp adapters? For example my RR adapters cause the drivers side headlight to turn off after a while when on auto or when it is being used a a drl. Does this fix it?
