Head Units Show Em!

[LFtrip]

I'd love to get an aftermarket nav system for my 13 as well but I got the 800a package and the metra kit places the new head unit at the bottom of the dash. Just looks weird in my opinion. If they can make a kit that places it near the top like the OEM Nav units I will definitly do it.

Just checked at lunch. No go on the 890 in my '11 screw. Climate controls are grayed out in the myF150 screen. Gauges work fine. I must be on an older firmware or there is something specific to model year differences in the F150 integration.

It can definitely be the firmware you have, my truck its also an '11 Screw, did you perform correctly the procedures on the iDatalink website in order to install the firmware and options of your truck onto the Maestro RR device? I followed step by step the instructions and it worked great since the day of installation.

the dash kit listed is for the non nav units. you would need to get the alpine perfect fit kit (if you go with an alpine screen) but here would be another option

Wish they made one like that for the 13s.

metra makes one for the 13-14, but its for the non nav trucks

I know, I have the non nav unit but I don't like how they move the head unit to the bottom of the dash. Just makes it awkward to me.

My question is.... Is there a company that places the Nav unit on top like the OEM Nav units? Is there a reason why metra put it towards the bottom?

Hmmm... I guess that means metra is the only one

right now, metra is the only one to make a 13/14 kit.

Do you think someone else might make one? Trying to decide if I should wait or just get a summing and cleansweep for my stock head unit.
