steering wheel controls
Is it possible to install an '05 steering wheel with cruise/radio controls on an '04?
I would like to be able to control my Nakamich head unit using the PIE radio control harness adapter and the '04 does not have any radio functions on the steering wheel.
I posted this question in the Audio section, but those guys seem to take forever to find any answers.....a much better informed group of individuals here!

i was thinking of this too, but decided that the $200 for the new steering wheel could be better used for other add on's and i will continue to use my kenwood remote.
what i was thinking of doing is wiring all the heater buttons to be audio buttons, it would require a bit of tinkering but could be cool.

beemr- I don't see any reason why this wouldn't work. I was considering getting an older model steering wheel, I just can't remember which '99+ model year had the radio steering wheel controls. I think maybe it was '02. I was planning on getting the steering wheel and using a PAC interface, w/ a Pioneer navigation unit. Let me know what you decide.

05 F350 with no controls.... want them
I also want to add the steering wheel controls to my truck. I have an 05 with no controls and just wondering how I would wire up a new steering wheel. Would there be a wiring harness that would just fit into my ford radio for the cd controls? I'm not worried about climate controls(mine isnt electronic anyhow), because all I really care about is the radio and cruise control. Let me know what u think
thanks alot
thanks alot
