  • Steering wheel radio controls?

    I'm putting in an aftermarket stereo. I want to save some money by not purchasing the steering wheel interface. Is it easy to remove the radio controls. If so, how do I do it. I can't find it in the How to section.

    Next, once I remove the controls, I will need a new plastic piece to take its place. Does anybody want to trade controls for a non control section. It would have to be silver (normal). Straight-up trade.

    Or, can I go to the dealer (In Canada) and order a blank one. Does anybody know what the part number would be for this item?

    Thanks

    As an option, you could just leave the controls where they are. That's what I did and it doesn't harm anything.

      It's just, I hate having buttons that have no use.

            i would trade in a heartbeat (would want the wiring for the controller too), but i painted my "blank" blue. the paint is chipping, and could probably be scraped off to reveal the original silver. PM me if interested...

              I'd rather not scrap, thank you anyway.

                    Is it easy to take off that silver radio control cover?

                        The second picture with the cruise control. Can I take the silver section out or off without disassembling everything?

                            You have to remove the SIR module to remove the radio controls (or cruise controls).

                              Dam, that's what I thought. I don't want to do that much work.
                              I guess it all depends on how bad I want to remove the controls.

                              Thanks all
