    If you want to keep your steering wheel controls, volume and skips. Just keep in mind back up camera cable sold separately, doesn't not come with it. Make sure you have Audio professionals do the work. It took my shop a few hours these new cars are more complex not like the old ones all you need it was a radio.

    Includes everything needed to hookup to my '08 Tundra with JBL. Unlike another product I won't mention here, this includes everything you need. One connector doesn't want to stay connected, but once you get it in position and confirm it's in all the way, it shouldn't come back out. Retained steering wheel controls, and communicates with the radio unit. That's all I needed.

    I purchased this in conjunction with a Sony Apple CarPlay in dash replacement unit for my 2006 Lexus RX 330. It makes the steering wheel controls functional for the in dash unit. The functionality is amazing and Best Buy did an impeccable job of installing it for me.

    I've installed stereos into 5 cars over the years. This new PAC interface makes installation and connecting simple. All the wires are easy to distinguish and steering wheel controls worked great the the first time.

    Awesome all in one solution this smart harness take care of including stealing wheel controls this will save you additional connector and vehicle specific configuration and installation charges. And this smart harness contrails your source output and balanced input to your amp or speakers so you will end up with notable audio quality or distraction totally with it.

    Steering well buttons mostly work with new device. There is one button which seems not to do anything anymore (used to start a phone call) but with android auto it isn't really needed.

    Steering wheel control with crap sound

    This allowed my 2013 toyota camry xle to maintain steering wheel control on my aftermarket radio (no car functions though). BUT-- this unit made my speakers sound like crap. After some experimenting and troubleshooting i discovered that the PAC unit inverted the left rear speaker channel. it was an easy fix at the speaker by swapping the wires. But even that didnt fully resolve the issue with crappy sound. I eventually purchased a straight wiring harness and bypassed this PAC altogether, my radio and speakers then sounded clear with no volume issues or distortion (and i had to rewire the speakerback to its original wiring instead of inverted). The moment i reconnected the PAC unit, everything sounded like crap again. I'm packing this thing up to return it. Not worth the price for just steering wheel control and loss of sound quality.

    Bought this so I can use the steering wheel controls in my 4runner. Looked like it would be a nightmare to set up but it was very easy. Match up colors and set the box to the specified make. It was plug and play. No need to set controls. Well worth the money.

    Best Buy installed it, so I can't talk about setting it up. It does allow my steering wheel controls to work with the new Pioneer radio. That's its job, so it's 5 star for that.

    This is a must to have the steering wheel controls work with the radio. The Siri functionality is great. Phone calls with ease. You have to adjust the volume control in the radio setup because the dedfault is very low.
