I was looking into getting a PAC Swix to allow me to use my Steering Wheel controls on my avic-f700, but from what I am reading online it seems your stereo has to have a remote control to do the programming and my avic has no remote control, anyone have experience with this?

You will need the PAC SWI-PS. The SWIX is for head units with a remote sensor but the F/X series has no remote sensor.

bah! thats what I was afraid of I found a swix for cheap, thanks for the info
