Intergrating steering wheel controls to aftermarket deck?

[jusjus]

Hey guys, just wondering if anyone has done or knows if it is possible to somehow incorporate the steering bluetooth phone controls to an aftermarket deck? I know there are adapters for the volume and seek track buttons, just not sure about the bluetooth controls. I really wanna buy/install a screen deck with GPS/DVD etc, but I also dun wanna lose the bluetooth feature especially when its the law here in Toronto! thx

There is no adapter for the bluetooth controls to function with aftermarket decks. Most aftermarket head units that have wired remotes do not run the bluetooth buttons through the controller. Also, the HU will most likely (if you're going GPS/DVD) have it's own touch interface on the screen for making/answering calls. You will need to buy the bluetooth hardware for your head unit (unless it comes with it) and run your own microphone. Hands-free will function fine with the new head unit, but the steering wheel buttons will not do anything.
