Map display not showing any version info is something I have had too. After upgrading the maps from Naviextras, this information never showed up in my Endeavour as well till I upgraded to SYNC3 version 3.4 from an unofficial release.
Have updated the maps twice using Naviextras. Sharing a screenshot of the Naviextras Ford/Lincon Toolbox from the update process I had documented for my own use

My display shows : "SYNC 3, software version 3.0, Build 19205". So is this version 3.3?

How did you upgrade to version 3.4?

Thanks. It would be great if you can share the step by step procedure for the update.

This is version SYNC3 version 3.0
There is an unofficial backdoor process to upgrade to SYNC3 version 3.4 Build 20021 but I would advise against it for now since apart from gaining new features and UI, you get some bugs.
Will compile and share shortly.

Posting on behalf of a friend.

This is the procedure to upgrade your Sync 2 for the benefit of those who own the 2016 model.

I received these bulbs today itself and installed them myself.

I have one concern, since wire is bit long and there is this Canbus adapter too. Is it safe to wrap that much wire within the assembly? I mean once bulb gets heat, is there any risk as well?

Now, this has been one of my real concerns with this set up. I have switched the dust covers from my low beams to the high beam. Reason - the low beam dust covers had holes on them, made by the accessory guy while fitting after market HIDs. I have a 3.2 Trend which came with halogens in the projectors. I have the P20 wires and the box outside the dust cover. Not ideal, but I too was worried about the damage that heat might cause in the tiny confines of the high beam housing. The low beam dust covers are new and I have used the rubber grommets that come with HIDs.

Having said that, please rest assured, all the other P20 users in our group have the wires and the box inside the housing. No issues reported. Some of them have been using it like that for several months. So I don't think you need to worry.

Thanks for assurance, didn't get the chance to test the upgrade in real world scenario due to this Covid 19 Pandemic.

Will update my experience once this is over.

I need another help, I need to know the right angle/alignment of this LED bulb to get projection as far as possible.
As of now the bulbs are diagonal and it seems they are not throwing the lights far even though they are quite bright.

Getting the alignment right is difficult since these bulbs don't slot in as easily as halogens do. Plus there is the added issue of these bulbs twisting in their own base, when you try to slot them in. This ability to adjust the alignment is a good feature IMO. But that also makes it all the more difficult in the tight confines behind the headlamp housing, especially the left side. I too have the bulbs diagonal, in the sense, at about 45 degree angle, and so do some others. Many others have it up right. I would suggest you park against a wall and adjust the beam to what suits you best. Remember, the bulb is free to twist on its base by applying pressure on the base and twisting. I have a Trend and I do not have the auto levelling headlamps, which is good in a way. I can adjust the beam to whatever height I please. I am quite satisfied with the throw and my highway night drives have become relatively faster.

Thanks for the tip, I already fixed the right bulb, however, the left bulb, as you stated was hard to fix and now its stuck inside the assembly, at 90deg

I believe, since its 21 days lockdown, I have sufficient time, and no alternative.
I am going to dismantle the left headlamp and try to fix it the hard way.

It's quite easy to land up with these bulbs stuck in awkward angles. But some gentle rocking and patience will eventually dislodge the stuck bulb. You really don't need to remove the whole headlamp. Speaking from experience. lol:

I spent almost 30 minutes, but its stuck badly, I will try to take it out with patience tomorrow, before actually dismantling the whole assembly.

Okay, you were right. I was able to take it out without dismantling the whole assembly.
I even leveled the lights manually, as though its autolevelling headlamps I always found left light bit higher than right one.

I have new query now, does low beam have different patterns for left and right lights? Left seems always bit higher than right one. Is it because us always have upcoming traffic from right side?

Due to covid lockdown, unable to take the car out for a few weeks now. Any tips to make sure everything is in working condition till the lockdown is lifted please?
