Steering Wheel Controls

[daveprue]

Scott,

Is your statement that the clockspring would have to be changed based on the fact that there are not enough connector pins available to support the controls?

It seems to me that there was still one unused pin, on the 4 pin connector that passes the 2 cruise and the horn wires.

Have you actually buzzed the clockspring and verified that it does not pass that 4th pin?

If indeed it does pass that line, I am thinking perhaps steering wheel controls could utilize that line and share the ground side of the cc with a second wire coming out of the connector.

I have a nice new aftermarket HU on its way from China, and it specifially states it has a "Universal Steering Wheel Control Interface" ...whatever that might be

Anyway, I am sure I will be sorely tempted to do something in terms of wheel mounted control.
