Metra Radio Data Interface for Fiat 500 2012-2015 - AXDI-6515

Metra AXDI-6515 Radio Data Interface for Fiat 500 2012-2015

The Metra AXDI-6515 car-radio data interface for the 2012-2015 Fiat 500 supports amplified and non-amplified factory systems and provides 12-volt, 10-amp accessory power. It preserves Retained Accessory Power (R.A.P.), factory 3.5mm AUX-IN and OE Bluetooth connectivity while supplying parking-brake, reverse and speed-sense outputs for navigation equipment. Plug-and-play connections support aftermarket-radio installation with selected original functions intact. Micro-B USB updating supports vehicle-application updates, and a prewired connection accommodates an optional steering-wheel-control interface, sold separately.

Key Features

Amplified and Non-Amplified Fiat 500 Integration

When replacing the original radio in a 2012-2015 Fiat 500, support for both factory audio-system types accommodates installations with or without a factory amplifier. Plug-and-play connections and high-level speaker input support that integration. For a replacement setup with navigation equipment, dedicated outputs provide the vehicle's parking-brake, reverse and speed-sense signals.

12-Volt, 10-Amp Power and R.A.P. Retention

Accessory power and factory-function retention are both part of the radio replacement. The interface supplies a 12-volt, 10-amp accessory output for the installation while keeping the vehicle's original Retained Accessory Power function.

Keep Factory AUX-IN and OE Bluetooth

Changing the head unit does not have to mean losing the original auxiliary input and Bluetooth connectivity. Retention of the factory 3.5mm AUX-IN and OE Bluetooth keeps these supported connections available through the radio upgrade.

Steering-Wheel-Control Preparation and USB Updating

If your vehicle has steering-wheel controls you want to keep, plan for the optional interface required to retain them. The prewired connection prepares for that separate interface, but does not provide control retention by itself; the steering-wheel-control interface is sold separately. A Micro-B USB connection also lets installers apply vehicle-application updates to the data interface.
