Steering Wheel Question, Buttons on wheel for cd player Options

[Akimbo]

You guys ever seen this? My friend has a Monte Carlo that has buttons where she can hit Seek and change radiostations/cd tracks. Is there an aftermarket wheel that will fit into a 6GC? Thanks

I've only seen them on GM cars.... Would be rreally cool to have

Nope, I know that some aftermarket units have a remote that attaches to the cd player.

sony has a thing you can mount on the steering column, but i think only american cars have them on the steering wheel. i'm sure you could rig something up if you really were determined tho. maybe try searching online for steering wheel remote or something like that.

Nah, a lot of new cars have radio controls on the steering wheel. When I worked for Enterprise Rent-a-Car, we had them on several models, but mostly higher-end like Infiniti QX4. My wife has them on her new Altima.

it's more of a safety issue than a lazy issue. if you don't have to reach over to the radio, you don't have to taek your eyes off of the road.

well one thing with the celica is the radio is very close and is practically in front of you, so if you know your deck you can easily do it blind folded. Of course having controls on your steering wheel would be cool and convenient , maybe if you swapped like a Land Cruiser steering wheel (if they have controls) with yours? of course then the wiring...
