I need help with radio replacement!
Okay guys I need your help! I have been reading and reading until I'm about to go blind and I can't find a definate answer to my question.
I just replaced the radio in my wife's 2012 FJ Cruiser with a Pioneer AVH 4200NEX. I just love the function of this radio with the CarPlay and with Bluetooth.
So I want to do the same in my 2013 FX4 with navigation. I want the use of the bluetooth function but I also want to be able to operate my AC controls from the screen. I don't really care if I have the "SYNC" function any more because I think it sucks and I typically just use Siri anyway, but I do want to be able to do the same functions on the screen and it looks like the Idataling Maestro might make this possible.
Does anyone know if this can be done?

Check with "12voltguy" here. He works for/on the Maestro/Idatalink.
I have one in my truck and love it. Mine is an XLT so a different application than yours but I think it is doable.
