Quick review...
Pros:
works great
Adds 2 high speed USB ports (3.2v fast charge)
Keeps aux in jack
Adds mic in jack
Super easy install, tool less too.
Cons:
Volume not super loud (iPhone iOS 14.1) ymmv
Some operator retraining required.
The unit is well made, and fits perfectly. Install was as easy as snapping out the stock price, disconnecting 2 connectors.
These plug into the LRBT-1 and it snaps back in place of the stock unit.
Easy.
Pairing is easy as it comes up as LRBT-1 no code, just pair and set your radio to aux, and play whatever
Now the cons...
Apparently the lr3 and rrs with a key start have variable voltage when starting, starts at battery voltage (12.4 for me) then drop to 9v ish when starting on the six circuit. This interrupts the LRBT-1 start up and basically it never comes on.
2 solutions
1) insert key turn 1 clock wait 1-2 seconds then start. Works every time.
2) while running... you can turn the key to start and hold for 4-5 seconds, the starter will not engage if running (its smart) this reboots the sub subsystems (AC, radio, 12v outlets, probably more.. dunno)
So some operator retraining required is the easiest thing to do.
Works and is integrated, with Only the one PITA factor. Overall pretty good for a gen 1, cottage industry bespoke price of electronics
