KIT-MFT1
Head Unit Connection: The KIT-MFT1 supports iDatalink's Direct T-Harnesses (sold separately) for direct connection to select iDatalink Serial Port compatible head units (including Kenwood, JVC, Alpine, Sony, and Pioneer radios) - replacing the wiring harness that comes with your aftermarket stereo (some hardwiring may still be required). If connecting to an aftermarket head unit that does not support an iDatalink Direct T-Harness, you'll need to cut off and remove the 20-pin black connector from the KIT-MFT1's harness and splice each wire directly to the aftermarket radio's corresponding wire.
Flashing Module via Weblink Desktop: The iDatalink Maestro RR or RR2 will need to be loaded with correct firmware before installation. The included USB cable plugs into your computer and allows you to "flash" the Maestro RR with the appropriate firmware to prepare it for installation. Simply download Weblink Desktop (for Windows and Mac) onto your computer to access the appropriate firmware.
Dash Kit: The iDatalink Maestro KIT-MFT1 includes a black ABS trim-panel and four sturdy metal brackets to mount a compatible double-DIN Alpine, JVC, Kenwood, Sony, or Pioneer receiver equipped with the iDatalink Serial Port.
Retained Factory Features: The following factory features (if applicable) are retained when replacing your factory radio with a compatible iDatalink Serial Port head unit from Alpine, JVC, Kenwood, Sony, or Pioneer using the Maestro RR or RR2 Car Radio Replacement Interface module and the KIT-MFT1 installation package.

If you add an aftermarket front and/or side cameras (sold separately) to your iDatalink compatible head unit that is equipped with multiple camera inputs, the vehicle's factory auto camera switching feature is also retained.
- Warning Chimes: Factory warning chimes are retained through the use of the KITMFT1 installation kit.
USB Module: The KIT-MFT1 comes with a media module that consists of two USB ports; one USB-A port and one USB-C port. The USB module replaces the factory media module and installs in the dash to provide easy access to your compatible iDatalink receiver's rear-panel USB-A and/or USB-C port. The media module features one 6' USB-A extension cable and one 6' USB-C extension cable that will plug into the corresponding port on the back of your iDatalink compatible receiver.
Note: As long as your new aftermarket receiver has a high-amperage charging port (1.5A or greater), the USB module should support Apple CarPlay and Android Auto operation. However, the number of variables involved means we can't guarantee compatibility.
