Default Do any late models have steering wheel audio controls?

Pretty straight forward question:

Is there any Honda models that had steering wheel mounted audio controls?

Yes indeedy. . .one of many for the new install. Going to take a looooong time till I have funds for everything though.

After some research, it appers 98+ Accord Ex-V6 models have the wheel-mounted audio controls, as do a lot of the late-model Acura models (MDX, TL, RL, etc). I think my best option is gonna be the earlier Legend controls though, as the shape of the old Legend wheel is just about identical to my 1992 Prelude:



Now, where in the hell am I gonna find somehting like this? Does anyone know what specific features the steering wheels control?

are you planning on also using the old factory radio from the car you steal the controls? You're going to have to pretty much unless you get the interface box from PAC or one of those guys (which works for aftermarket radios that are wireless remote compatible). Either of these methods are super easy though, so it shouldn't be too bad for ya!

Sorry, forgot to mention that I was planning on using the PAC infared adaptor for aftermarket headunits. Legend owners use the PAC one a lot and seem to have pretty good results with it. Now I just need to figure out how the Legend controls are wired. . .
