I have a Subaru Forester 2010 and to reintroduce a previous unanswered question - will my steering wheel controls still function?

Honestly I'm not sure yet. I just received this unit last week and haven't had a chance to install it yet. They claim that the steering wheel controls will work but you have to manually set them up through the start-up menu. I'll keep you posted as soon as I have completed the installation.

Yes, the steering wheel controls function with the radio very good. The only things is that you must seal the rear back camera, because it is not weather proof.

Answer from Titantech: It fits your car and your steering wheel control will work well.

Unfortunately my Subaru has no controls for multimedia on the steering wheel to give a 100% valid answer. It should work as the unit is more advanced than the original Subaru one. Any way to have full control over it you'll need to use the touch screen of the unit. This is not that bad as the unit is in good place and comfortable to do without taking your sight off the road while driving.

I don't know if this one is specific for your car, but yes this would make your steering wheel controls work again. For how long is a different story. This one started not working correctly about three or four months after installation.

No and it will likely die after 2 years and Sony wont replace it. The previous model of this did for me and I switched to Alpine. Depending on the year of your car you'll have to get something more expensive and likely get another part to have it work with the steerin wheel controls.

No. They just need to be plugged in and your game set to steering wheel controls. The instructions are also very good at exposing for to set buttons

I used the Axxess ASWC-1 on my 2011 Altima to integrate the steering wheel controls, worked perfectly once I did the proper initialization procedure. "Turn the ignition on, press and hold the Volume Up button on the steering wheel." Different vehicles will obviously require different installations, check a subaru forum to see if anyone has posted a DIY. axxessinterfaces (dot) com : 2009 SUBARU FORESTER 4DR SUV WITH 2.5L ENGINE AND STANDARD AUDIO SYSTEM -- ASWC-1 will work with your vehicle. Alternatively, there are also PAC steering wheel control modules.

No, this is to make connecting "Metra Axxess ASWC-1 Universal Steering Wheel Control Interface" much easier to your toyota. But with these two combined or even just the ASWC-1 you will not lose your steering controls.

I found this link. Judy's suggestion appears cheaper, but compare and see which will work for you. After looking through the manual I don't think you can use steering wheel control without that adapter.

Not automatically. There's a kit, from what I understand, that can be purchased to make it steering wheel compatable for any vehicle.

In order for any aftermarket radio to work with steering wheel controls you have to use an integration kit. You lose all functions of it as soon as you take your factory radio out.

I do not have the controls myself but it has the settings for it. So I will say yes because they dedicated an entire spot to set up your steering wheel buttons. Great head unitand easy to install too.

I play with the regular xbox controller and I love it. Why would you need a steering wheel? Just use your normal controller...

I have installed the unit in my 1992 GMC Sierra an I have absolutely no problem controlling my steering wheel. The only problem I have is that the remote is not working.

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

I have a 2004 Silverado with steering wheel controls and everything works fine with nothing else needed. I hope this helps

I have it installed in an '04 suburban & no, it does not work with the steering wheel controls. It was annoying at first but I have adapted!

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
