Steering Wheel Control Buttons 10 Keys Car Steering Wheel Controller Wireless Remote Control Universal for Car Stereo, GPS Navigator, DVD Player

Amazing little product. I bought this as well as a PAC SWI-RC and was able to hook these buttons up to my pioneer radio and program them accordingly. These buttons are well built and very clicky. I didn’t use the adhesive that came with it as I own stronger 3M adhesive, the one it came with seemed kind of weak. But the buttons themself are AMAZING. A steering wheel control interface (like the PAC) IS NECESSARY if you don’t have a radio that has a built in button mapper. Which most don’t. If you don’t buy the interface, these buttons won’t work and will be useless. It is necessary. It was tricky to install because the interface wasn’t made for aftermarket buttons, but with some trial and error I got it to work. Now these buttons are 100% functional and programmed and I couldn’t possibly be happier. Don’t listen to bad reviews. These buttons are solid. I do not recommend them to beginners though. If you don’t have experience installing car stereos / accessories, stay away. This is a complicated install. The reviews that claim that it doesn’t work are Just people that don’t know how to properly install them. They work. If you are a novice, I recommend buying these, a PAC SWI-RC, and take them to a stereo shop to pay the professionals to install them for you. If you have experience wiring things up and installing stereos, you will probably be able to figure it out as I did. Overall, AMAZING product. Using it in a 2006 4Runner.

Just received this today. The product is somewhat flimsy. For $36, I would expect a more durable product. The instructions on the product page are different from the instructions included with the product. The instructions mailed with the product are the correct ones. Fortunately, I bought an Android stereo receiver at the same time I bought the steering wheel remote. It was fortunate, because I have a 12VDC power supply, and always bench test car stereos before I install in my car. So I also bench tested the steering wheel control buttons at the same time. Initially, I didn't even read the instructions included with the product, because I clearly remembered the instructions that were online. The reason I remembered so clearly, is because I thought it was weird that it only had a Key1 wire and no wire for Key2. The product page says the gray wire is an antenna. There is no antenna wire!!! The gray wire is for Key1, and the white wire is for Key2! Hooking up only the white wire to Key1 will result in only half of the 10 buttons working. If I was fumbling around in my car doing this(instead of in my airconditioned computer room), I would have been very annoyed.Edited to add: When I initially wired the product it didn't work due to the wrong instructions on the product page. So I had opened up the remote controllers to check the batteries and/or see if I could find something wrong inside. I then snapped them back together. Now when making a turn, if I hit the remote with my hand, the top cover(containing the buttons and board) snaps off and fall to the floor of the car. They should have made the controllers like other remote controls, and had screws attaching the pieces together. Especially considering you are likely to hit them with your hand almost every time you make a turn. I fixed the problem by putting black electrical tape around it. However, the adhesive they use isn't good enough to keep from knocking the entire button off the steering wheel when you hit it with your hand. I replaced with another double-sided tape. If this was a 5 dollar product, I might accept having to jerry-rig it before the product was acceptable. Not acceptable for a 37 dollar product. Rating dropped to two stars.

I just finished installing this product in my truck, using it to control a Kenwood DDX9704S head unit. In order for this product to control the head unit, you must also purchase an interface device. I chose the PAC-Audio SWI-CP5 (Steering Wheel Interface - ControlPro 5). Once the SWI-CP5 was programed, this product was able to communicate with the Kenwood head unit. I'll update the post if the product fails, but for now it is working well.My wiring details are below - use at your own risk. What worked for me may not work for you. Verify all connections before making them.Wiring the wireless receiver (this product):Red wire - connect to ignition controlled accessory 12v (ACC 12V+)Black wire - connect to GroundGray wire - connect to "White (-) Analog SWC Input 1" on the PAC-Audio SWI-CP5White wire - connect to "White/Black (-) Analog SWC Input 2" on the PAC-Audio SWI-CP5PAC-Audio has incredibly detailed instructions, so it would be best to follow their instructions and download their mobile app to assist with your install. However, here is how I wired the SWI-CP5 for my setup:Wiring the PAC-Audio SWI-CP5:Black Wire - connect to groundYellow Wire - connect to a constant 12v supplyRed wire - connect to ignition controlled accessory 12v (ACC 12V+)White wire - connect to Gray wire of the wireless receiver (this product I'm reviewing)White/Black wire - connect to White wire of the wireless receiver (this product I'm reviewing)Blue/Yellow wire - connect this to the SWC (Steering Wheel Controls) input wire that is part of the wire bundle coming out of the back of the Kenwood head unit.No other connections were required for this setup with the Kenwood unit.Programming the SWI-CP5 to work with these universal wireless steering wheel controls:Again, PAC-Audio has incredibly detailed instructions. If you follow their manual programming steps you'll be fine, and since they are quite detailed, I'll omit them here. However, here are some pointers:-Dip Switches on the SWI-CP5 should all be in the OFF (up) position. Even the 4 dip switches that are used for radio selection should be in the OFF position for manual programming.-there is a short and long press programming feature available for the SWI-CP5. When programming the short press buttons, do not immediately release the button when the chime is heard. You want to hold it for another second or so, but not so long that you hear the long chime (which indicates you just programmed that button to be a long press feature). If you release any of the buttons too soon, the SWI-CP5 will give you an error once programming is complete. Simply try again, with better timing on the short press buttons. It took me 5 tries to figure it out and finally get it right.
