02 reg and a pioneer hu
I just had mine set up for stalk controls.
halfords were a big help.
Dont buy the adapter until you seek advice.
My cd player was not compatible with stalk controls and I had to purchase a new player.
Cheapo players even though they have the connection at the back still may not work so ask before buying the adaptor.
I paid £35.00 for mine,but they vary a little bit depending on the make of unit.
i had mine working, i have a 53reg sri, and a Pioneer hu, but now iv changed to Alpine, they dont work.

Each make of headunit has a different steering wheel control adapter - so you'll need a different one to run an Alpine?
Mine was an alpine.Only expensive alpine players work not the cheap older ones.
well my hu was £250 so it should work, the adapter i have judt says Vauxhall on, not a make?

The adapter is £20.
You need a patch lead for alpine / pioneer - these are about £5
I've got an Alpine mobile media HU and got it hooked up to my ipod and all steering wheel controls (autoleads) works great!!!
