I think you'll struggle fitting the mk8.5 screen, you'd need a whole new dash.

There is a factory touch screen for the mk8, I've got one, but it's rare.

Factory order.
There was an offer at the time to get the Sat Nav free.
The option price was £ 1,175.

Be nice if you could get a after market one to fit a 65 plate for reasonable money.

Just fitted this to my 2019 transit, it's a alpine INE-F903d.

Thanks. Would you have picture from the side to see how it fits?

I thought i might have got away with only changing the top of the dash and the climate controls would be nice to have the mk8.5 screen looks awsome

Is there an option to upgrade the stereo to a screen and maintain the stock smaller screen that’s used for the parking sensors?

That’s what I’d like as well.
