Works great very satisfied

I upgraded my 2000 Ford Explorer and added a BOSS touchscreen stereo. It already had the ability to connect to existing steering wheel controls, but apparently I don't have them. I thought it was very easy to install but I have experience with this kind of applications. My stereo already had a steering wheel input, which also made things easier. It attaches easily to my steering wheel and the buttons work right away. Haven't tried reprogramming a few buttons yet so will update if I find out. I…

Pros
  • This is amazing
Cons
  • Ugly packaging

Glad I finally found it.

Generally a good product. Installed on Toyota Estima 2001 (similar to Sienna). I didn't have any range issues as other reviews suggested - the remote is on the left side of my handlebars and the box is behind the dash next to the Pioneer stereo. So far he has responded very well. Installation was almost too easy. Connects directly to Pioneer's wired remote control. Then he connected power and ground and earned. Buttons for track search, volume up/down, attention mode and answer/end call when…

Pros
  • I like everything so far
Cons
  • Long delivery time

This was a nice addition to my 2006 F-150 which didn't have the factory stereo controls. The controls will quickly get you up to speed on the layout, and it's easy to work with in the dark. As mentioned before, if you cut the strap you will never be able to reattach it to the handlebars. Also, the sharp plastic on the steering wheel cuts into my leather steering wheel and it still turns at its tightest point. I added some 3M VHB tape to help with this, but it's the stretch of the tape that…

Pros
  • Very good price
Cons
  • weak

Pros: Some features work. Cons: almost no technical support.

Mounted on MOMO steering wheel with Power Acoustic Radio. Didn't use the strap. I attached it to one of the steering wheel spokes. PROS: Wiring and installation were easy. Easily syncs with the main unit. Wiring instructions are simple (but no diagram). CONS: Programming instructions are not easy. The redirect function does not work! (That's why I give 2 stars instead of 3). The Source button (middle) is higher than the rest, so trying to change tracks or volume is tedious because you're always

Pros
  • Best
Cons
  • Appearance

A great idea spoiled by a terrible button block.

As other reviews have said this is a great idea and just what I was looking for to add steering wheel controls to my aftermarket radio, however the steering wheel controls are so poorly designed that no reprogramming is required! I may have a lemon, but I've tried 7 ways to reprogram myself to a different position since Sunday and it just doesn't work. 1. Problem mounting rubber band, how strong do you think the band will be. something for your steering wheel with rubber band? Not much! Other…

Pros
  • Sleek design
Cons
  • Questionable purchase for seniors

Works very well - try zip ties.

Let's get some obvious cons out of the way. Some important details are missing from the included installation guide, such as: B. the image showing the location of the LED and reset button on the RFASWC interface. On the front of the interface, the holes all look the same, and if the LED doesn't light up, it's difficult to tell them apart. Note that the reset button is the hole in the middle under the "X" in "AXXESS". The LED is the hole on the right, under the "S". On the left is the USB port…

Pros
  • Great for a small home
Cons
  • Exterior
