Ive been told by Halfords that when fitting a new CD player in my car it isnt possible without more kit to get the steering column controls to work.
Obviosly I dont really believe this and was wondering if anyone (Chris) could give me a fool proof guide to DIY reconnection to my CD player? |

And no more radio controls beside the steering wheel? 
I've gotten hooked on this. Both in my R19 and the Renault Master i drive at work  |

The good things i notice about the remote is that i dont need to take my eyes off the road anymore.
I cant do that when im adjusting volume/source/channels on the head unit.  |
