Hi All,

Can anyone help!!!

Im looking at changing my Audio Head Unit, but does anyone know which part i will need to make the steering control still work??

Thanks

, having said that, i just got my head unit (alpine) and it already has the adaptor for me steering controler

yeah good luck getting it to work then, if you do let me know cos my alpine came with one that was supposed to work too

take it that it didnt work then chris?

Well when i bought all the bits for the ice dealer to install they said dont forget to get an adapter for the steering remote, well when i looked at the adapters they were like 40 odd quid or something, so having already spent hundreds i didn't really want to spend any more. So when i saw the alpine head unit, and on the description it said it came with a universal steering wheel remote adapter, i was like, cool, that'll do me! So when they went to install it i said to them that it comes with it and if they could fit it and try and get it to work, if not then i wasn't that bothered. But when i picked it up in my excitement i forgot to ask and when i got home i tried it and it didn't work. I think there is something on the little apadter box that you can change, so whether its just a question of setting the right number on this box i dont know but there may be hope!?!

i will have to find out, and u know when u got the dobblue din adpator did a screws come with it?

er, dunno the ice dealer already had a double din adapter so i didn't have to buy it. I would have thought there was more to it than sliding it in but then again what is there behined the dash unit to screw it into?!

i just pulled everything off, not hard the only thing is popping out the 4 buttons next to the radio!!!! halfords told ime it will take the 1 - 2 hrs to fit, lol i took the dash off in 10 mins!!

getting it fitted today at halfords!!!!! i could do it but me and elctrics are a no go!!!!

I'd rather take it to an ice dealer than halfords

Have you cut the dashboard struts then?

not yet but i will get them cut!!!!!!, just weather i can be asked lol

So are halfords just fitting the wiring harness and not the actual radio then? Otherwise you're gonna have to keep you're dashboard off until you cut the struts.

i have cut the struts went down to halford for them to fit the head unit, and they only gone and gave me the worng lead for fuck sake!!

wondering if u can chris or anyone tell me what leads i need and where to get them from

thks for your help guys!!
