How to Keep the Radio Steering Wheel Control w/ New Radio

lmlefty · 03-15-2008, 06:22 PM

I am considering gettting a high definition radio for my 06 double cab Tacoma. However, I love the steering wheel volume and station controls I currently have and do not want to lose them.

Has anyone replaced their radio and been able to keep the steering wheel controls for the radio after replacing it with an aftermarket radio? In particular was it a high definition with all the extra upper bands that are found with some of the better radio stations?

Thanks,

You will need an interface such as the one below for your particular vehicle however I'm not sure on the HD Radio part.

And if they can't get you one, I'll trade you steering wheels for my non-radio control wheel!!!

Okay maybe plus a little $$!
