interface (supplied separately).
Please ensure that you have the correct lead before proceeding. For universal
patch leads, prepare the wiring loops in accordance with the instruction
manual supplied with the product before installation.
-
Connect the 12 Pin connector from the stereo connection (patch) lead to the interface box
-
Connect the opposite end of the stereo connection (patch) lead to the steering wheel control input on the back of the aftermarket stereo
NOTE: This may be a 3.5mm jack connector or a wired input depending on the brand of aftermarket stereo being fitted. Please consult the aftermarket stereo installation manual for further information on where to make the connection
