SUCCESS! ROTARY DIAL installation with 12" screen - without removing upper trim

[HI Zeus]

So the dial doesn't actually physically stop on one end of the rotation or the other, its just that the selector and indicator stop (electronically). I assume there is no tactile (clicking) feedback as you move from "P" to "R" to "N" to "D"

So, I can reach down and give the dial a generous right hand twist and know it will be on "D" and later give a generous left hand twist and know it will be on "P," regardless of the fact that the knob will spin infinitely in either direction. (That is what I would have hoped/expected, as opposed to it looping around and picking up on the other end and running through the options over and over as you spin it.)

this Rotary Dial version doesn't just 'free wheel' spin on it's own, no, it requires some small torque, just as if you are turning the knob of your door to enter your home. You will feel the 'indents' as you pass each gear...

when the truck is not on, it does NOT turn.

I guess I'm outlier here, in wife's Mach-e which is a wonderful little car, the one thing I really detest is that stupid rotary dial...rather have the shifter like in my Lightning

I bought the 2024 bronco shifter. I wonder what the difference is. I tried searching.

I also just completed this mod. Love it. Just like my Wife's Mach E.

yes, as while the knob WILL continue to rotate 360degrees, the electronics tells the truck which gear it is in, even if you go past 'DRIVE' with the dial... the RED INDICATOR will not move past that .... well, unless you turn the truck off, while still in gear - then it just changes from D to P.
