Steering Wheel Radio Controls via Scion Wheel?
Anyone know if the Scion TC steering wheel is a bolt on replacement for our steering wheel (08 LB)?
I'm using a Scion t1814 HU in my car now, and I was looking at this and thinking I could find the harness to run and utilize steering controls by bolting on something like this: http://www.ebay.com/itm/2006-Scion-T...#ht_1662wt_952 CTScott??? (Or anyone else?) |

I have a Scion TC leather steering wheel with a Yaris airbag cover on Crashy. It fits reasonably. To use the TC steering wheels controls you would also need the TC airbag. Also, the Yaris spiral cable doesn't have enough wires for both cruise control and steering wheel controls, so you would either have to choose between the two, or purchase a 2012 spiral cable (which I believe will fit) and which has enough wires for both.

So to recap, for full functionality:
Buy a TC steering wheel with controls Buy 2012 spiral cable Buy TC Airbag For just audio, no new spiral cable needed. Correct? |

Correct on all, but assuming that the 2012 spiral cable will fit, as no one has tried it yet,
