Eurovox Head Unit After Market Adapters

[C-Shell]

Hey everyone,

I was at Autobahn the other day looking at new a new Ariel as mines broken.
When i saw some converter things for aftermarket H/U.
Looked like you just buy the main part, which plugs into your existing H/U wiring, and then you buy the appropriate adapter to suit your new H/U e.g. Pioneer, Clarion etc.
All up, for the two pieces, it only costs around $50, depending on which converter you need. Beats the $150 i was quoted from a friend who works as a Car Audio Installer :P

So i was just wondering if anyone here has had experience using these products and do they make the Steering Wheel controls usable on your new Aftermarket H/U?

Thanks guys

just about anyone who knows anything about installing stereos using these looms and no they dont make the steering wheel controls work, and still $50 is a bit steep, you can find them even cheaper

From memory retail on those adaptors is $15 bucks each piece meaning $30 for both can't find my book at the moment but that's what I charge.

Sorry, maybe they were cheaper, it was early last week when i went in haha :P

Cheers for the speedy replies guys

for the steering wheel controls to work you need you put in an after market head unit that works with steering wheel controls dont you ?
