You can buy an interface for the S/wheel
controls and your head unit if you want.

yer, i know, i never used them when i had them lol

[henrytad]

i didnt know you could buy those devices to use the stock controls, jb hifi had em n they told me der 300 bucks. whats installation like with em? is it simple?

[Exidor]

Never installed one myself.
Buying from the US is far cheaper than JB.
You can either buy one that is hard wired to
your head unit or one that transmits a infra-red
signal to you head unit.

Anybody else had experience with these adaptors?

last time i installed the headdeck in my old car, i noticed the input jack for a remote control so i reckon it would be straight forward. my deck isnt listed in any of them, so ive contacted a few people on ebay to see if its compatible. 100 bucks with priority postage is better than 300 bucks with no install.
