Does anyone know where i could find some good absortion material on internet (like brown bread or dynamat)? PS:Im in italy THANKS A LOT! |

Unregistered guest | I hooked up a new cd player in my car and I was wondering how I could get the volume controls to work on the steering wheel |

Aftermarket steering wheel controls differ from car to car. In GM, there is an 8 pin harness that plugs into the back of the factory radio. Sony, PIE, and others make an adapter that will allow these controls to work with the Sony stereos which use the wired rotary controls. Many companies also make adapters which will translate the steering wheel controls of most cars to the programmed pulses of the remote, but you have to program them. Ford's system uses a single wire and different voltages to signal the radio. This is very easily adapted to work with Sony's rotary commander wired input. See the white papers section at www.teamrocs.com for the R values for specific functions. You can either make your own adapter, or just build your own separate control panel.
