Spyder should work the steering wheel remote i believe is the wired remote capapbility.

Spyder,

I just put this head unit in my '07 LSV last week and it works great and the remote hooks up as stated in the previous post. You hook up the remote to the steering remote wire coming out of the back of the head unit.

Hey Robert, were you able to keep the stock wiring hardness? this would make the swap super easy...


how much work was involved in the upgrade?
