Review on VAIS Technology Interface Tuner Kit by Malik Munns

Revainrating 2 out of 5

NOT user friendly while driving

I did not purchase this item from Revain, direct from the VAIS manufacturer in Colorado. I installed it myself on my 2019 Ford F-150 and it was very easy to install and the sound quality is excellent compared to FM stations. That's the only reason I gave 2 stars. When I say it's not user friendly: you need to add your favorite Sirius channels to the PRESET list. You cannot program (save) your own radio buttons or touchscreen buttons. To view the list of your favorites (presets), use your car/truck's touch screen and press the buttons in this order: Browse, New Search, Artists, Presets and Channels, My Presets. These are six (6) separate steps that will give you a list of your favorite station names (presets) that you can select WHILE DRIVING. You'll have to do this every time you want to scroll through the list of station names and select the station you want to listen to, or you can press and hold the fast-forward button on the touchscreen, steering wheel or media button and scroll through your favourites, but you cannot switch directly to your favorite channel. You have to scroll through all the presets until you get to the channel you want. Had the return not been such a problem with return postage and a 15% restocking fee I would have sent it back. It's not worth the high price.

Pros
  • Connects via factory USB port in car
Cons
  • Questionable purchase for seniors
