No coding required very safe and easy. Just download forscan, get your 2 month free trial extended license and then you can select your theme from a drop down menu in the APIM. Pictures attached

I've seen people change the values of codes and mess up, this way is much cleaner and effective.

Drop down menu for theme selection will only work after you have downloaded the V3.0 update in the link above.

Hello, great post.

I have sync 3.4, and can't get the changes to do anything. Has anyone gotten 3.4 to change theme to the darker gray lincoln theme permanently?

The only way i can get it to change is in testing options through the head unit. When APIM changes are made and written whey don't do anything.
