Just installed F90BT in B7 (A couple questions)

[pyrobecks]

I just installed the Avic F90BT in my B7 over the weekend. I have a couple questions for anyone who has done this. I have been searching over at Avic411, and have a few answers, but just wanted to get some input from anyone who has done an F series install in their B7.

1. For steering wheel control I need a PAC_SWI-PS (or is it the PAC_SWI-X) Module?

2. For Speed Sensor (VSS) I need to find the VSS wire. I've read that in the B6 this is in the drivers side kick panel (a blue/white) wire. Does anyone know if this is the same for the B7, or maybe an alternative?

3. For Illumination, where can I find this? (Have read that the Soundgate Can-Multi can give me VSS, Illumination, and Reverse.... but if I can avoid the $300 price tag that would be nice)

4. Lastly, I fabricated a custom mount, but wanted to know if anyone out there makes a custom front face, or am I on my own with that fabrication too?

TIA

i would look at avic411.com for the answer for steering wheel controls

but i believe the vss wire is the same b6+b7 and for illumination you can tap into the h/l switch.

i have a metra dash kit and ill be getting the pioneer install kit just for the little trim ring so it looks legit.
