Anyone using AVIC-Z2 with steering wheel controls?

[yessss4]

I installed the Pioneer AVIC-Z2 a while back and at the time there were no steering wheel control adapters for a B7 S4. Is anyone using the AVIC and their sw controls? If so, who makes the adapter? Help appreciated.

I have steering wheel controls. Made by Pioneer, check my sig, it's the CARPI something model number. Pac Audio makes one too, not sure how well it works, you need to frankenstein together a SWI-CAN and SWI-PS.

Thanks for the info. Are you saying that the CAPRI is good to go as is, or does that one need to be "frankensteined" as well?

The CARPI is good to go as is, it's literally plug and play. But they don't sell this adapter in the US. I got mine from incarexpress.co.uk by emailing them. You can also find them on eBay, but in my experience, it's much more expensive than buying directly from a vendor in Europe.
