    Hi All.
    2014 Ferrari California - Hi I am in the USA.

    I installed the Sony XAVAX6000 ( https://a.co/d/etCyT5I ) which says Maestro ready.

    Used the Maestro HRN-HRR-CH1 T-Harness for Select CHRYSLER DODGE JEEP 2007 and UP.
    ( https://a.co/d/fNsYHOG )

    Used the mounting brackets for a Chrysler ( https://a.co/d/ef2MwT1 )

    Flashed the Maestro RR and the RR2 ( https://a.co/d/gBCdx6y ) for a 2014 Jeep but the device did not register/function when plugged into the car.

    Now the Sony is installed and works. But the OEM car functions (camera, steering wheel ) are not working.

    Maestro has no support for Ferrari.

    I spoke with navtv.com and their module is 50:50 working with Sony but recommended 100% Kenwood or Alpine + their module for all OEM controls to work....I will ending up trying this out $260 + 20% restocking return fee.

    Any recommends to get the Sony to work?
    Overall recommends?

    These guys in UK said they were able to get the Sony to work, but did not specify the module they used. I posted on the site for help:


    Thanks in advance.

    Did you guys leave the CanBus Box in the car, or was it removed? If it was removed then you cannot have steering controls.The Canbus Box is what takes the steering wheel controls and transmits it to the NIT. Without it, then there is no transmission of steering wheel controls to the CanBus.

    then the maestro unit should be able to do it. Otherwise I can make a unit but would need your physical car to be present fro me to sniff the proper codes to make sure it all worked.

    Maybe we flashed Maestro with wrong model?

    Flashed the Both Maestro RR & RR2 for 2014 Jeep
    What vehicle should we use? Maestro said there is no flash for a Ferrari.

    For the Flash , On this attached picture, I don't see the Flash for XAV-AX6050 model.. could this be the problem?

    I am located in Brooklyn, NY

    I think the better question is what brand radio and module will work best.

    Is there a wider model that will fit without the spacers on both sides?
    Maybe even a center consoul remote?
    Canbus Box was not removed.

    If I have the parts ready, then we can discuss you installing.

    you can go on crutchfield.com and see all the options of radios that will fit. I too do not care for the loss of screen real estate on the sides.
