Source Clarification

The current iDatalink product page and 2026-07-23 coverage data identify Maestro RR/RR2 for KIT-EXP1. An older myFirstech paragraph naming Maestro A2B was not used because it conflicts with the current application records.

Fitment disclaimer: Compatibility is not determined by year and model alone. Verify the exact year, make, model, trim, factory radio, navigation, amplifier/audio package, screen, climate controls, camera equipment, replacement radio, required interface, firmware, and accessories before ordering. Product photos show the listed part; surrounding equipment may be pictured for application context and is not included. Contact MCOR Automotive through the chat button for application help.
