Review on Enhance Your Steering Wheel Control with the PAC SWI-RC Interface SWI-RC-1 by Rob Jimenez

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Works great but you know what you're getting into by going to the PAC website first

I highly recommend that you download the instructions specifically for your car and stereo BEFORE you make a purchase. There are general instructions as well as vehicle specific instructions that apply to YOUR vehicle that you can check. The PAC website was simple and easy to navigate to find your vehicle and its specific installation instructions. If you're not sure you can do the work yourself, either program it or maybe solder a diode or capacitor (included) for certain applications, spring for the pricier competitor Axxess, which automates the programming process for you. PAC installed flawlessly in my 2006 Odyssey paired with a Kenwood DNX574s head unit. I'm very, very thankful that I didn't have to deal with "workarounds" (aka soldering) to get my steering wheel controls working in my Odyssey. The prices for PAC's steering wheel controls were also a plus, as they are significantly lower than other competing companies. Products. I'm very happy that PAC is the best in terms of both functionality (everything works), ease of installation (no diodes to mess around with) and price (did I mention it's significantly cheaper than its competitor Axxess ?) suits me.

Pros
  • Save steering wheel controls for 3000+ vehicles quickly and easily with PAC SWI-RC-1
Cons
  • Some difficulties
