Customers are saying
Customers highly value the Universal Analog Steering Wheel Interface for its steering wheel controls, ease of use, and compatibility. Many find the installation process straightforward and appreciate the overall performance and fit. While the interface is well-regarded, some customers feel the price is a bit high, and a few have noted that programming is required before installation and that the instructions could be clearer.

Incredible, truly a masterpiece of car audio
|Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Incredible product. Truly the work of a company that put good time and money into their products. As a former installer, I cannot recommend how much better this product is over any other brands options enough. They’re easy to program, give detailed instructions on how to install, and they’re very versatile. Even on older vehicles, my S2000 for example that use a more analog style of controls, it works perfectly. I will say a good tip for anyone not using a supported radio (like power acoustik cp-71w), set the radio to any newer Kenwood while programming. It works for most radios.

Works as advertised on 2005 G35
||Posted . Owned for 8 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Worked as advertised on a 2005 G35 and upgraded AA/carplay stereo unit that had option for steering controls. Steering contols allow for some customization options but read the manual for details becuase there are limits, but the options met my needs. Volume up, next track, and voice commands worked with existing steering controls.

More Control Functions Using the Same OEM Buttons
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This was used to connect my 2004 F150 controls to a new stereo I installed. It works great and adds nice functionality to the steering wheel controls that wasn't available before. It comes with everything needed to connect to the stereo system and has a USB cable for programing online. The whole process is quite easy and it works reliably. Definitely worth the cost to have the OEM controls work even better than they did when new.

A must have when retaining factory SWC!
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Highly recommend! Works flawlessly. Easy to program using a laptop and usb cable. I purchased a different brand originally trying to save a few bucks and it was an absolute nightmare. I was never able to get it to work.

Easy Answer to Tough Problem
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This was a very slick solution to a difficult problem. Very much impressed with the simplicity and clarity of the instructions. There was a curveball with the factory harness on my 2015 Scion xB - it had an intermediate patch cable between the car harness and the radio connector so I had to translate wire colors between teh Maestro instructions and the wires that went to the radio. Once this was done, the thing works perfectly and I like the flexiblity of being able to program each switch to several different functions before you flash the firmware. Very much worth the price. Also, thanks to the Best Buy / Geek Squad guy that helped me find it at the store.

OEM Steering Wheel Controls for my JVC
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.When I purchased the JVC KW-V840BT head unit with Apple CarPlay, the salesman suggested this interface module to keep my OEM steering wheel controls. While it seemed a bit expensive, I’m glad I got it because I would have missed using them. The install was a bit tedious, but as long as you follow the instructions on the Maestro website you’ll be ok. It does require you to create an account on the Meastro website, and you have to connect the interface module to your computer to flash the vehicle specific software. You do have the option to customize the function of each steering wheel control button, but I found the default functions to be all that I needed. The Maestro website will also give you vehicle specific wiring instructions. Once installed, it has been working flawlessly.

Used on 04 Honda Pilot
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Does exactly as advertised. Did a self install. Tried to flash the unit on a Mac system, couldn’t not get it for the life of me to flash. Had to do it on a family members PC and even that was not as seamless as some of the YouTube videos mentioned. But that’s my personal experience with it. It seemed extremely intimidating looking at all the wires at first. but the online portion has you input your vehicles info and at the end it specifically tells you what specific cables to use. Would highly recommend if you’d like to keep your steering controls not sure if the install is the same on all vehicles. Some have an rca output that can be plugged directly into the aftermarket unit and can avoid spending on this product. But for my vehicle it was needed and it works great.

Daunting but works flawlessly
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Using this for the new headunit in my 2009 Subaru Forester with steering wheel controls. Reading the online instructions and watching a few YouTube videos is a MUST DO prior to installing this unit. It was a little daunting at first, but in the end it all turned out to be fairly simple. The Maestro online wiring instructions specific to your make/model of vehicle are amazing! I also enjoy the ability to custom program the remote. I would recommend this for anyone who wants to keep their existing steering wheel controls.

Necessary for me
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Over the years I have become used to my steering wheel controls. When I installed a new Pioneer system I had to purchase this adapter so I could continue using the controls. It works seamlessly and I am pleased. I only wished the sales staff would have told me I needed this. They didn't and I was surprised to find out that that my controls didn't work. I would have been covered in the initial "free" installation of my system but since I didn't know, I had to pay an installation fee to have it installed on another date.
