new 2012 FX4 couple questions

hey guys, Im back after taking some time off from the forums. Thought I would show off what I picked up yesterday.

Couple of questions,

Ive got the Sync system non nav in the truck now. Im trying to decide if I'm going to do Double Din Kenwood navi or hold off a bit until they get the module box that integrates all of the for sync system. Has anyone heard any updates on this?

If I do hold off I'm going to get a inexpensive off board nav system similar to a Garmin Nuvi. Where are people mounting these? worth it?

Command Center... Seems like there is so much more they could be doing with the small screen between the speedo and tach. There is a section for apps but is anyone developing any and where do you download them.

Back up camera in the rearview... How can i get this to be on all the time?

Fog lights and Head Lights... In my old truck i grounded a relay so both could be on when High Beams are engaged. Anyone have the wiring diagram for this on the new trucks?

Lots of questions, sorry

Thanks !!!

I pretty sure sync compatability modules exist, I would check out crutchfield to see what they have in stock.

the SJB(smart junction box) has to be modified....not as simple as the bambi mod.....there's a diagram around here somewhere...
