Default Need help with HU questions for custom project.

Hey All,

So some of you may know this, but I'm making a truck Controller using a Rasp Pi and some additional hardware. Someone asked if I could also allow it to control radio (AM/FM, play USB/BT audio through the speakers ), but unfortunately I don't have the wiring info or anything. I can play USB/BT to the play and plug directly into the aux cord on the truck, but I'd like to be able to tap into the AM/FM radio and change the station and get the info. Is there a way to do that? Does anyone have a picture of the antenna adapter? It may be possible to hook into it.

Also, does anyone know how people control the radio with iPads in their dashes? I'd like to be able to emulate that if I can. Or if there is no radio controlling, I'll have to make my own. If anyone from ford, or a tech or anyone, would like to chat, I'd be happy to. I'd basically just like to wire into the factory radio and control certain things if possible. Sure, I can tap into the buttons using GPIO, but I cannot get data out.
