im new to the forum and currently picked up a f700bt and i was wondering what part i would need to use my steering wheel controls. i was told that my current module wouldnt work because it uses the infrared remote but this deck wont work with it. i drive a 2007 ford focus. please let me know. thanx.

The PAC-SW-PS should do what you want. It's designed for the Pioneer, works great with my Mazda 6. If you goto Pacific Audios website you can check that it's compatible.

And you can also check out the Peripheral PESWIPS steering wheel control interface:

I have this in my 2009 Kia Rondo, and it works fine. The response time for a button push is great.
