Steering Column Control

My P2 Si came with a factory optional Sony head unit that had a steering column controller, which plugged into the back of it using a 2.5mm audio jack connection. I've put an Alpine 9843r unit in there and was wondering if it is possible to use this controller with my alpine unit, or whether it'll work with the sony unit only. If not, is it possible to buy universal steering column controllers? Or do they have to be factory fitted to the car.
 
you can get one for the alpine i think not sure if the sony one will ork
 
ok thanks. Where should I look? Caraudiodirect don't do em and that's the only decent car audio website I know of.
 
yahoo and do a search for alpine car audio or something like that
 
or if your from near bangor, go to halfords and ask for dafs, tell him i sent ya, should be able to find info out for ya
 
Alpine and sony are not cross compatable, same goes for all audio really. look to pay around 20-25 quid. sorry to deliver bad news mate.
 
Turns out I can't retrofit one to the almera because it doesn't come with a factory unit, only the optional one with the sony. Don't matter tho, I'm used to feeling my way round the fascia now :D

Thanks anyways
