Parts Listing:
-Kenwood Excelon Reference DNR1007XR -
-Metra 40-EU10 Antenna Adapter -
-Metra 86-3528 Radio Removal Key -
-Metra 95-6523 Dash Kit (Black) -

-Electop USB 2.0 A Male to USB B Mini 5 Pin Female Adapter -
-Metra Radio Install Tool Kit XDCPA11BT -
*Note: Confirm all wiring harnesses, adapters, etc. Those listed are for my 2021 Travato, which is built on a 2019/2020 Ram Promaster 3500 chasis. This should be the same for vehicles up through the RAM Promaster 2021 Year Chasis (which would be a 2023 Model Year Winebago Travato), I believe. -- Also, I ordered mine from Crutchfield, but by ordering from Amazon, the Radio Deck comes with a $200 HD backup Camera at no extra cost (I used the factory backup cam as shown, but will indeed eventually replace it as the quality is definitely not HD and looks grainy on the HD screen!!)! Had I have known this previously, I would have used Amazon instead of Crutchfield. The only con going the Amazon route is that Crutchfield will pre-connect the little wad of small wires (the set you see in the video connected via little plastic grouping of "butt connectors") for $25. However, it is extremely easy to do it yourself using the Metra Wiring Install Kit from Walmart listed here, too. In return, again, you get a free $200 backup camera! Either is good, it's whatever your preference is. You have the item part numbers either way. Good luck!!

Great video, made installation so much easier. For whatever reason, I didn't see the part about having to program the Maestro Rr to my vehicle. Once programmed everything worked fine. As a money saver, for this setup, you can purchase a pictail for $10 instead of paying the $25 wiring fee from Crutchfield (Maestro Ken1 ACC-HU-KEN1).

Thx. for taking the time to document your Kenwood install. I am interesting in purchasing a Kenwood as well. However, one of my concerns is that your display, as with many installs I’ve viewed, is quite “proud” to the instrument panel face. You mentioned in the video that, upon installing the Metra brackets on the side of the head unit, they were fitted to move the “box” back as far as possible …. or perhaps at the correct depth to properly meet the back of the Metra surround trim. Personally, I’d rather have the display positioned as close as possible to being flush with the instrument panel. To that end, can you please comment on the feasibility of moving your display back further. thx in advance - John

Great share....amazing upgrade! Have you installed the HD rear camera yet? Also, does the former back up camera stay on full-time while going forward. There's a hack to keep camera on during forward motion (on stock radio)...but like you mentioned...the quality is still horrible. So you can buy the whole setup from amazon vs clutchfield?

I have not installed the new backup camera as of yet. Will try that over the next month as time permits. I bought from Crutchfield, but yes, you can get it from Amazon too. I haven’t tried to keep it on full time, but will let you know. Honestly though, without the new higher quality cam, I wouldn’t want it in anyway!! Quality with stock camera is super poor.

I called Crutchfield and they said this radio is not compatible with the Promaster van. Obviously it is. In my Entegra, they replaced the stock radio with a Pioneer unit. I wonder if this would cause any additional complications.

Did you have your ProMaster set in Crutchfield garage as 2021 or 2020? When I enter in 2021 ProMaster it gives no results but when I put in 2020 it gives me all the results. That may be where a lot of the confusion comes from.

Great video - not sure I have the guts to do it myself. Can you confirm that your chassis is 2021/ Mine is but I notice some subtle differences when looking at yours. Also, I see Crutchfield doesn't list RAM Promasters in their list of vehicles. How did you select a compatible unit? Thank you.

Mine is a 2021 Winnebago Travato on a 2020 RAM Promaster Chasis. It is VERY RARE that you find the exact same year chassis as the RV. Call Crutchfield and talk to them live. Much more helpful than the online tool.

Thank you for making this install video, It helped me quite a bit with my new install! How is your quality of the reverse camera image after the upgrade? After I upgraded my deck to a new JVC with the Maestro RR I have noise in the image while engine running in reverse. It's not terrible and I can still see the image, but it wasn't there before on the stock radio. Funny enough, if I turn the camera on manually while running image is clear but put in reverse and there is noise.
@OnTheOpenRoad
@OnTheOpenRoad Жыл бұрын
I have the same result. In my case, the prior deck had a 4-inch screen. Therefore, it is a low-def camera. Pixelation or image noise is present with the new 10 to 11-inch screen. The newer versions of my deck now come with a high-def camera that can replace the existing one, or you can order it separately. I didn't bother, though, as I also installed a digital rearview mirror with a high-def camera on the rear, so I use it while driving and backing up. Therefore, I never even look at the OEM camera shown in reverse through the radio deck. If you need that, though, the simple resolve is to go to your deck manufacturer and purchase a compatible high-def backup camera to replace the existing one.

I wouldn't see why not. 2020.5 & my early release 2021 are basically the same. My Promaster chassis is a 2019, which I suspect is the same as yours.
