I'm aso wondering how much this sticks out? Mine is a manual. I'm not sure how much taller/shorter the shifter is. |

The screen itself sticks out around 2 inches I would say. It does block the shifter from being held from the top, so I don’t know how it would work with a manual. I switched to a Hurst pistol grip shifter so I could hold it vertically on my automatic. |

Hey Fireraptor, have you had any issues with tethering your phone through the USB C connection? Every time I plug my phone into the provided wire connected to the USB C on the back of the head unit, the stereo says no USB detected.

Hey fireraptor, how are you liking the setup? I really want a floating 9+" idatalink display to use with maestro and this seems like the best option. Does everything work well, like the heated seats, steering wheel controls, and HUD?
My only concern is that I have a manual 2011, so I definitely wanna make sure there's enough space there for shifting into 1st haha |

If you really wanna get into the nitty gritty, the mute button on the steering doesn’t work for me, but my head unit has a dedicated one anyways so that wasn’t a problem. I think this was an oversight I made when I programmed the Maestro unit tbh Another new thing was with the OS in my head unit, audio volume levels between music, phone calls, voice assistants, and system sounds are all handled separately, so for example when I trigger Siri from carplay, I have a small window of when Siri is speaking to adjust the voice assistant volume; once she stops talking, if I had music playing, it will go back to my previously set “music” volume. Because of this it’s possible to have Siri really quiet and your music really loud, and it initially drove me insane before I figured it out. The HUD won’t show song titles anymore if I play from a device, but it will still show radio stations. To add on to my previous point, whenever there is a change in audio “source” (music to siri to phone call), the new source is indicated in the HUD where song title would be, as in “Apple Carplay” will pop up when it is started and then disappear after several seconds. I did face a bug where it would not go away and I couldn’t see my speed, and I had to restart the head unit. Not sure if this was a Maestro issue or my head unit, but it hasn’t happened since. Some car system settings are also lost after shifting to the Maestro, for example, the ability to set a default radio volume on startup (this was the only one I really miss). The door open/seatbelt chime is different, but I wasn’t too bothered by it As for having enough space for your shifter, I would recommend the PAC or the Metra dash instead of the CAM1, since they have the head unit slot further up. The hole is more recessed though, so I don’t know if the screen would sit properly. Good luck! Last edited by fireraptor99; 10-30-2022 at 08:42 PM. |
