Anyone hook up to the steering wheel controls on an 03+ w211 E-class yet? One of you Guru's must have! How did you do it?

You need to use the Pac SWI-PS.

Check www.pac-audio.com to check if it'll work with your car.

Yeah unfortunately they dont make a SWI for the E-class. i was wondering if anyone has done any custom wiring for this?

It would take more than wiring..it would take some type of circuit....

A PAC *WILL NOT WORK*! This has been discussed many times. You need to buy the proprietary Pioneer adapter made specifically for your E-class. They do not sell them in the United States.

I did a search but couldnt find any data here. Does anyone know the part number? i did a search on the pioneer uk site and google, but nothing comes up.

I didn't have any luck on my Benz. I lost my steering wheel controls, but I love Z1 so much that it was still a win/win situation.

I got it working on my C AMG with a Pioneer .131 adapter. You can get brave and try that if you want. I know that some aftermarket CAN peripherals work on both C and E. The window/sunroof module that I bought works on both C and E.
