Does anyone know if you are able to keep your steering wheel controls (i.e. volume control, tuning) and continue to have them work with this product?

Yes, you are able to keep your steering wheel controls. Make sure you get installed by a profossonal.

There is an Axxess/Metra or adapter (ASWC) that will help with that. For mine, It worked on all but the phone buttons.
870991
Yes, with the proper steering wheel adapter harness(available from you installer).
870992
The answer is yes.. There is a harness that you buy. It's really not that expensive. Because there are not any nobs on the unit it is really nice to have the steering wheel controls..

You have to buy an additional piece for SW controls. There are a few different kinds, but the PAC RP4-ch11 is what I used. It was easy to install. Similar to installing a wiring harness. If I have one complaint, it's that mine doesn't fast forward through songs. That might be something that can be programmed. I never connected mine to a PC before installing it. Also if it makes a difference, mine was installed in a 2006 Chrysler 300c.

No. You lose the factory Bluetooth hands-free controls. The Bluetooth functionality of the unit is below the OEM standard; disappointing. The only steering wheel controls that work with this unit are the channel change, volume control and Mode change.

Yes, it does. There is an option in setup menu to enable or disable the steering wheel buttons.

I do not have the bluetooth control on my FJ steering wheel but in order to get my volume / channel up and down to work I had to go into the set up menu in the stereo and select a unit number for my FJ to get it to work. Not sure if there is a unit number for bluetooth for hands free on the steering wheel ? also I have had complaints from people that I call on the stereo's blue tooth about it sounding distorted and that could be the portable mic for the unit.

There's no button on steering wheel. Buttons on my radio can be used. Problem is it's hard to remember which is which. I don't have Siri.

What I did and it seemed to work find was stretch the entire wrap around your steering wheel. Keep the short cords at the bottom. Then use the long one to wrap around the cover. Keep each wrap an even distance apart. You should have plenty to make it all the way around. When you make it to the short cord tie it off and snip the extra. NOTE when you are wrapping the long cord try and keep it flat and tight. This will keep it smooth and prevent bunching up.

Unfortunately No, you'll need to buy (RP4-CH11) Radio Replacement Interface With Built In Pre-Programmed Steering Wheel Control Retention and Navigation Outputs. You may check www.pac-audio.com, but make sure to buy it from Amazon, because you may find cheaper deals. Good Luck.

If you have the aux and the usb input it will work fine plus the controller for the volume on your steering wheel

it retains the sync talk but the steering wheel song change buttons and volume control is a sep adapter that costs around 50 dollars. i have a 2013 mustang 5.0 and there was a radio harness i had to purchase also that was 150 dollars. all in all it was well worth it.

Not sure of your question, but the purchase of an additional module is require to incorporate the use of your steering wheel controls.

I doubt it, I've only used the iPod interface so far and I have both steering wheel and on screen controls in my vehicle. The only thing that works correctly is the volume button. Every time I turn off the car I need to disconnect my iPod and reconnect it, to get it working back to where it was when I turned the car off. The installer I used told me these only work about 25% of the time, and rarely work as advertised. He was spot on with mine, it works to get sound out, but that's about it. I would look at other options, the only reason I didn't return this is that I paid to have it installed.

I had the unit installed into my MKZ with a "PAC swijack" steering wheel control module and the corresponding iPod cable and both work extraordinary on my vehicle. Everything was installed professionally, and I've had no issues whatsoever with the module or cable. I hope this helps.

Yes, I don't use it...most of the controls in the steering wheel work just as well.
