Review on Universal Radio Replacement and Steering Wheel Interface - Maestro ADS-MRR Enhanced for SEO by Sherman Lancaster

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Must have for the latest car models!

Incredible thing. I installed this after a local (in the Detroit area) radio installation site messed up my truck quite a bit. I have a 2009 F-150 with a Pioneer Carplay receiver and everything works as it should. Volume and search function perfectly from the steering wheel. Additionally, the dashboard now shows the date and time rather than the "built Ford hard drive" as was the case with the previous setup. You must be using Windows to set this thing up. I downloaded a trial version of Parallels for my Mac and Windows Ten. It was a little tricky adding all the drivers and things that didn't allow the program to work, but once I did it was pretty cool what you could do (map buttons and what not). I didn't want my sync to be activated so I disabled that part of the setup and disabled the sync module under the dashboard. If you are a little mechanical you can install this. Make sure you get the Ford wiring harness as both are needed to get the job done. I used an Idata connection cable to go from the Maestro to the new Pioneer head unit. Much luck!
