Default Radio buttons on steering wheel

ok so i changed the radio and put in a another radio with a screen that plays movies, anyway after i got it installed i realized that my volume and power buttons on my steering wheel didnt work anymore. Is there a way to make them work with an aftermarket radio? or if i get the original honda radio with navigation will the buttons work with that unit?

When you installed the new radio were there any unused harnesses? That's probably what you need to plug in.

the controls will not work on aftermarket radio, you will need to buy a module like pac swi-ps, this is what i used when i upgraded to pioneer avic d3...

The buttons work off a can-bus system, Gotta have the modules speak the same language.
