hey guys i'm about too upgrade the stereo in the ute as its standard i'm currently using an fm transmitter for my ipod.
What i'd like to know is, is there anyway possible to keep the stereo controls on the steering wheel as i find them really handy as i'm a short **** and hate leaning over to change stations or control the volume. also is there an ipod interface i can connect to the standard au headunit cause theres a module to hook up an amp of your standard headunit cause i really wanna keep the steering wheel controls. |

These days a lot of head units are ipod compatible or have an aux-in port for your ipod.
I use a CAT10 for steering wheel controls http://www.thecat.net.au/cat10.htm |

if you spend the $$$ you can get decks that will plug in with those controls i think you'll find.
