I'm leveling his truck on some fresh shoes. He's getting me beats and remote start. Worked out well for both of us.

I have a few questions:

Does it have apply car play or android auto?

When you buy the Sirius tuner does it still use the factory sat radio antennae?

I see it uses the maestro unit in the back ground to do all the communicating with the trucks systems. Can you the adjust the buttons to do what you want?

Thanks in advance.

No, and no to Apple and Android...

Yes, a maestro antenna adapter isn't required, but works wonders. (No need to use electrical tape as some have, lol)

Only the steering wheel radio buttons can have other or 2 functions. But, not all buttons can do this...

Thanks for answering my questions.

The second question was on adding the Sirius tuner and being able to use the factory Ford Sirius antennae on the roof and not having to add a second separate Sirius satellite radio antennae. Nothing to do with the maestro, I don't think.

As I stated, you can use it, but the Maestro Sirius antenna adapter make the connection solid (snap lock style) where as without it your just pushing on the oem, and it won't stay connected. Without using some sort of tape/glue!


I bought the Maestro Sirius antenna adapter, well worth the extra 9.99!

Sure does, and you can completely customize what the gauges show. anything the OBD reads you can show on the digital gauges.

Ok, same thing as my 799.99 Kenwood does, but Kenwood has 2 selectable gauge screens!
