    Hello all.

    Bought the Trail Grid Pro packages for the Sony 8100 head unit and front camera for my 2018 CM sport. When I first hooked everything up, I could only view either camera after hitting the rear camera button on the head unit.

    I reached out to Trail Grid Pro, and they told me to change the output from digital to analog, by cutting the purple/white wire coming from the back of the head unit, and connecting it to the capped purple/ white wire. Now that I've done that, the head unit will only display the cameras and nothing else. Anyone have this setup and know how to fix it, or anyone with knowledge of how to correct? Thanks for any help.

    Did you use the IDatalink Maestro to hook up the stereo? I was able to program the 2 steering wheel buttons that I don't use. One to view the front camera and the other to view the back.
    Funny thing though, whwen I went to reflash the Maestro because I made some some stere changes I didn't like it had a new firmware. When I chose to update the Maetro with the new firm ware I lost the ability to use the steering wheel buttons to view the cameras. When I went back to the old firmware, they option showed up again.

    No, it came with a PAC interface, not the maestro. All of my steering wheel controls work, only having an issue with the camera.
