    I really like that separate screen with the Pioneer, trying to stuff my Kenwood into the dash opening with all the wiring harness behind it was a major PITA. Would have been cool to locate the main radio piece in the glovebox and just mount the screen in the dash.

    The data cable is only 8" long, but they make a 59" extension cable, which I bought for possible future use.

    Weird that the cable is only 8" long, somewhat restricts being able to put the brains somewhere other than where they would be if it were a traditional double din. I can't see many vehicles having a spot 8" away from the screen to make it worthwhile, yet a 59" cable is pretty long. Seems that it would have made sense to offer an 18-24" cable with the unit, but still have the option of the 59" one for those that might want it.

    Re: 2018 Chevy Silverado Z-71

    I was having issues with the system...backup camera wasn't switching on in reverse, and the system would periodically flake out to where it would automatically revert to the phone screen. I could press another button, it would change for a split second, then go back to phone. It seemed to work fine when I started up the system, but hitting the turn signal the first time would cause it to spaz out.

    I fixed the backup camera issue...I'm slightly colorblind, especially between blue and purple, so I had the blue/white wire from the Maestro hooked up to the purple/white of the radio harness, and vice-versa. It's working fine now.

    I pulled the Maestro, re-flashed it, and it seemed to be doing okay until I tried adjusting time alignment while sitting at a drive-thru. It didn't change screens on me, but I lost most (but not all) steering wheel controls. I pulled into a parking spot, rebooted everything, and it worked fine all the way to work. As long as it doesn't flake on my while driving, I can deal with not making adjustments without restarting. I'm going to try a few more troubleshooting ideas before I start a thread on the Maestro's forum.

    Is it getting enough juice? Might have to recable the positive and negative to the battery...
