I just bought an AVIC 8200NEX. I was interested in everyone and anyone's opinion on what the best options are for steering wheel Controls. I know my options are:

iDatalinkn Maestro SW

Metra Axxess ASWC-1

PAC

This is a good question.

 

I have a F70DAB and a Suzuki and i have not found the right one until now.

 

In my case the three telephone buttons does not work, have tried some controls/adapters. with the F77DAB all is fine, so maybe a Pioneer fault?

I have a 2013 VW Passat with the 8100NX and the Maestro module. Everything works as expected – except some of the info in the MFD (multi function display) in the instrument cluster is missing, most notably the navigation info. But this is a Pioneer problem as the headhunt doesn't supply these data.

 

I've learned to live with these shortcomings.
