Hey,

I have this alpine headunit

http://www.halfords.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/product_storeId_10001_catalogId_10151_productId_26 2505_langId_-1_CarSelectorCatalogId__CarSelectorGroupId__varien t__categoryId_31516_crumb_31265-31371_parentcategoryrn_31516

How do i go about getting this hooked up to my Sterring wheel controls ? my c is 2005 plate 1.2 sxi version, ( twinport also )

IS this posible ? or do i need a differnt headunit?.

Also,

What are peoples oppinions of this : http://www.halfords.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/product_storeId_10001_catalogId_10151_productId_24 8069_langId_-1_CarSelectorCatalogId__CarSelectorGroupId__varien t__categoryId_31516_crumb_31265-31371_parentcategoryrn_31516#

You need a canbus wiring adapter from an audio store which is hard to come across as has only just out from autoleads at around £35, then you need the Alpine patch lead at around £5-job done!
