Nice work bro ...still can't believe that OEM stereo's are still crap compared to aftermarket ...nothing like quality music being an after-thought ...

below are some pictures of maestro rr integration. it allows for retention of steering wheel controls, multi function display, MDI, climate control, parking assist, and display of OBD2 info.

"my cc" menu


climate control (display only, cant change settings)


configurable gauges from obd2

That's cool you can display that info!

Damn you have exactly my old car, a white '13 cc r-line. Great car, I swapped my steering wheel with a flat bottom GLI wheel. I also upgraded the stereo (look in here for my pics) because yeah, the factory stereo really sucks. I never got my aftermarket system to sound right before I bailed on the car.

Good luck and let me know if you have any questions. That integration thing looks sweet. I would have done that if it was available or if I knew about it.
