My daughter received a Sony 6.2" Apple Carplay for her 2007 Toyota Camry as a Christmas Gift. She does not use the steering wheel controls. Is this still necessary to purchase? It seems like that's the main purpose and we are trying to keep costs down. null

There are cheaper alternatives if u don't want ir swc. It also depends on if u have amplified system or non amplified. I hope I reached u in time.

This harness will be necessary for any radio you purchase for that vehicle. It is a vehicle specific harness (not radio specific). This harness does retain steering wheel controls but if it says that this is the harness your vehicle needs then it is a requirement for any aftermarket unit. These harnesses can control your dash lights, your emergency chimes, your turn signals, can connect with factory amps or the vehicles computer. This is not a harness you can go without if you wish to add an aftermarket radio to your vehicle.
