does the buttons on the steering wheel still control the radio

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

The answer is no. I was disappointed that it was not mentioned in the advertisement/specs. However, I understand there is an interface module available that can be installed to restore this control. However, I have not found the time to locate it. Otherwise, the unit works just fine!

My cruise control and other button functions were working intermittently so I changed the brake light switch first and that did not solve the cruise control issue. Once I changed the steering wheel switch set the cruise is working more normally. However, the radio volume is still intermittent but that seems to be a separate issue.

i don't have a steering wheel with volume controls. but it works pretty good. sometimes when a call comes through and it goes back to the radio, the radio will be on full volume and i cant turn it down. i have to change back to bluetooth to get it to go away. kind of annoying but i can deal with it. if i had a system in my truck though it would be a whole different story

Yes, this radio is controlled with the steering wheel through original cables and cables supplied by Tyso for the Subaru. I have trouble looking for Panama map, and the company that manufacture the radio does not help with the map.

Yes it will work with steering wheel controls, BUT, you need to buy a separate unit and wire it in in order to do that. I purchased a unit from Metra to retain the steering wheel button functions. Wiring did not take long and programming was pretty simple.

With this iPod adapter the up down (left side) controls the song selection. The song playing is displayed on the center gauge info area. This will not help if your up/down button is malfunctioning but it does allow control from steering wheel controls

The harness I used did not have spare wires for those controls. My Jeep does not have steering wheel controls for the radio functions. The only wire in the Metra harness I did not use was for a power antenna.

Yes to both in my CTS Coupe. But experiment with the steering wheel buttons. They were not obvious in their function.

Ideally behind the dash or stereo (there's no "button"; you use the steering wheel and stereo only). Yes. By disassembling the dash, which is in your car.

No but, But I removed the battery ground cable, wait a couple off minutes (to prevent air bag activation), There are Two plastic plugs on each side of the steering wheel remove them and then the screws, remove the air bag, you now can replace the 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.

No it does not work. They do not have a steering wheel remote for this system. Kind of a bummer but the radio is awesome and I still love it.

Dear, it has steering wheel control function, but you need to get a canbus for it.

Yes you can use the controls at the wheel but it is the person who will install the connection must be adequate. After everything works as if it was the dashboard which had before

It does work with steering wheel controls , but If you have a BOSE system, like I do, this will not be strong enough to provide sound to your car.

No, it is not. The stereo shown here is a standard after market replacement. The only way you could control this from your steering wheel would be to velcro the included remote to it.
