01 radio up date

You will have to get a radio that is steering wheel control ready, and then look into the products from Pac-audio on how to interface with the factory controls. Not that hard, but time consuming, and you have to take the steering wheel apart to do it.

cool i will check it out

True with what hillbilly said, but you can also look into MTX's new line of steering wheel interfaces. They are called RE-Q. They retail at about $119.99 but you can get them for a lot cheaper. Lemme see what i can do for ya.

The reQ has nothing to do with his issue. From what I am reading into his post, he is adding a dvd/navigation unit to replace his factory unit. The reQ will not help him keep the steering wheel contols. The reQ is a glorified (although nice and I really like it) line output convertor.

It will boost bass frequencies at higher volumes with a factory deck.

yeah i forgot he was adding a nav unit. it was the first thing that came to my mind. once posted i realized what he was really doing. my bad

No biggie man. I did just put one of those reQ's in an 06 charger. Worked out pretty slick, pretty neat unit. Love the fact that you can run a remote lineout of it!!
