Now this item number 174083756761
I can verify 100% this guy sells display with navigation. It's for 2019 Ford f150 but with brackets I got, it works perfectly. Does have to be programed with forscan but xl will have to be done anyhow. He sells for 399.99 So a little over 8. Your set. A lot better then other prices out there.

I'm in the same boat - I got the truck I wanted with the exception of the stereo. Based on my repetitive searches of the internet, I think I've found the same pages you have. At the moment it seems like the options are:
1- Go through one of the two websites offering the OEM 8" replacements for $1800 and bite the bullet. The replacement seems simple enough and you gain climate control (if you don't have it which I assume you don't since I don't).
2- Do what the one YouTube guy did and install a double-DIN head unit using Maestro and a Ford replacement bezel. The only issue at the moment is that Maestro doesn't have settings specific to the Ranger - the guy in the video used the F-150 settings.
I have no problem doing the head unit if I retain back-up camera functionality and the use of the steering wheel controls. Let me know what you do,
John

If anyone here is interested in the kit i have. It includes bezel. Car play usb hub and car play wiring cable. T harness for plug and play. Set of brackets for new display, those would allow the use of a f150 display and module. 325.00 with shipping. You have to buy your own display and module. Module is either non navigation or navigation. I seen display and module going from 250.00 to 400.00 message me if interested. Can use PayPal or even Facebook to do payment

There are several different Android head units on AliExpress for the global ranger. Does anyone know if it is possible to make these work with the US ranger?

It looks nice, but I don't know if I can trust that. I feel it's a safer option to just get a brand name like pioneer, Sony, Alpine, ect and just wait for a bezel to come out. The name brand decks will come with a warranty easier trouble shooting lol

Been awhile since I have checked in, but does anyone have updates on this inquiry? I was wondering out-loud if it would be possible to take the bezel used in an F-150 and transfer it into the Ranger?
Again, it is not dire that I upgrade the infotainment system, but it sure would be nice.

Has anyone swapper their radio for an aftermarket system?? I’m crushing crutchfield and it’s saying our ranger only has a 6inch clearance in the dash. Most receivers I’m finding that I like are close to 8.
So does anyone know if the depth is actually 6??

Any more information on this? Ford's official parts website does not list any upgrades for the Ranger. The Infotainment main website lists the upgrades, but unfortunately, they are out of stock (plus the cost is nearly 2 grand)!
Thanks.

When I made this post, I had just called a couple local electronic/audio shops around me. All of them told me that they have not yet received the conversion kits for the Ranger and thus couldn't recommend an upgrade with aftermarket electronics.
Now, I am not sure if that is still the case given it has been a few months. However, with everything going on, and the truck still being just over a year old, it wouldn't surprise me if the kits weren't readily available. I am still hoping to get a solid, concise answer from someone who knows more than I.
