Steering Wheel Controls for 06 Audi

Hi All,

This is a wonderful forum. Got to love the internet! So I took my Z1 out of my Subaru STI and put it in my 06 Audi A4. I am told by all I ask that there is no way to get the steering wheel controls to work. Is there anyone who custom makes these? Or would? Where should I look. Check Crutchfield, their web site says they have something, but when I called to confirm, I was told it would not work. Does anyone know the website for PAC. They seem to make most of these adaptors. I am told it is hard because there are rotary dials instead of buttons on the steering wheel.

 

Any ideas or help would be GREAT!

 

Thank you,

Thomas

There are many threads on this complicated topic in various places. The complications have to do with the system whereby information is transferred from the controls to the radio, and back out to the MFD on the Audi, as far as i can tell.

 

Herer is a good thread, with a video!

Thanks for the reply. That adaptor won't work on the 06's because they switched to rotary knobs from buttons, so PAC is supposed to be working on something new but they said they are like a year or more out.

 

Thanks again!
