I installed this to replace an AVH-2300NEX with a Metra dash kit, and Maestro RR SWC with pioneer to Ford wiring adapters

A little big for my taste, but how well does integrate with the truck?

How'd you get climate control knobs?!?
It's an XL that doesn't have Auto climate control is my guess.

When you have only the small 4”, non-touchscreen infotainment system (XL and XLT 300A), you need to be able to control the a/c and heat manually - keep in mind these are old school controls for fan speed and warm vs. cold for the entire truck and not the type of “climate control” where you set the temperature for the driver and passenger and the system takes over.

I like it. I don't use auto anyways; it always turns the blower up to 11.

It works either way, I still use the original knobs, it is an XL... The system messages come across the radio

The fan speed and basic controlls work with the radio, or the original
