Our solution will be called FO2 (T-harness and software for ADS-MRR). For now you will need to use one of the dash kits on the market. We are developing our own dash kit as well, but this is a ways off.
As for FO2, we are preparing to enter beta testing phase in just a few weeks. So hopefully we will be in market in the summer.

So, I installed my Kenwood DNX690HD and Maestro. Everything worked great. I took the dash apart to install my back up cam, and while I was in there, I was going to reflash the module to change the seek button on the steering wheel to run through presets instead of individual channels, which apparently you cannot do.
The problem is, now that I put it back together, the my sub and rear speakers no longer work when listening through Sync BT Audio. They work fine on Sirius, and I don't know about FM since I do t listen to it. Everything else is fine.
I've gone through every setting I can, and cannot make it work. I really don't want to have to pull everything back out, but certainly will if it means I can have full audio again.
I have the radio and maestro as noted above, infinity components in the front and coax in the rear all running on a JL 360/4, a JL sub running on a JL 360/2 through a Kicker crossover. No OEM wiring is used for anything more than power and ground for the head unit. All of the wires are hooked to the Maestro off of the kenwood, but I ran speaker wires from the amps to all of the speakers and zip tied the oem connectors out of the way. I've had the speakers and amps installed for about a year on the oem head unit and it worked great. It also worked great for about 4 days after the kenwood/maestro install.
Any advice?

Do you have any pictures of what it will look like? Just curious if it looks better than the one currently on the market..,

Help sync cable
I have connected the maestro to the ford harness and the only thing left to connect is the pink cable to the sync cable.
Can u please tell me which one is the sync cable on the truck? The only one left is one that looks like the antenna (but is not, the antenna I already know which one it is). F150 2010 FX4 sync no nav. Kenwood 271, maestro & ford harness
