Howzit all

I got a question for the audiophiles out there haha

I have replaced my head unit with a Kenwood unit. Now its been treating me well and all but I am missing the "laziness" of the steering wheel controls. Now I have asked around a while ago and there is a solution. I would need to by a module of some sort to convert the corsa's steering controls' signals to match those of the head unit. All good and well but it cost around R1000 and they can't say for sure that it will work.

Now my question is, has anyone had any experience with these modules or can recommend an alternative?

Go to a place that can guarantee it will work. I was looking for my astra and the one guy (hygrade audio in jhb) said he can definitely do it.
