With pac you end up buying 2 or more adapters one that works with particular radio one that works with your particular car and some other adapters for power and amplifier, there is one and only one box solution that detects you radio and car at the same time: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vUNkLvpxWIc http://www.axxessinterface.com/steering_wheel_control_new.aspx Quote Link to post Share on other sites

guitarguy308 Posted March 27, 2011 Author Report Share Posted March 27, 2011 i have a 2008 prius. I want to buy the device off of amazon if possible so a link to what I should get would be much appreciated. I am not too familiar with any of this I am taking it to a shop to install all this but i thought it would be cheaper to buy everything on my own rather than from them. If you could explain what it is i need so that I will be able to keep my steering wheel controls. thanks Quote Link to post Share on other sites
JasonH Posted March 27, 2011 Report Share Posted March 27, 2011 For steering wheel controls you can use: http://www.amazon.com/Metra-ASWC-Universal-Steering-Interface/dp/B0039H2W66/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1301191965&sr=8-1 along with wiring kit 70-8114 which I can't find on Amazon. or http://www.amazon.com/PAC-SWI-PS-Universal-Steering-Interface/dp/B001EAWNVY/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1301192016&sr=8-1 They both do the same thing. The ASWC is much easier to install, but I'm personally a fan of PAC modules. You'll also need a power/speaker harness. If you have the standard audio, you just need this adapter: http://www.amazon.com/Metra-70-1761-Wiring-Harness-Speaker/dp/B0002BEQJ8/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&s=electronics&qid=1301192582&sr=1-1 If you have the JBL package, I'll have to do some looking.
