Installing Steering Wheel Controls on an Older Model Subaru with Aftermarket Radio

This is part 3, the final episode of my steering wheel swap series. I was pretty excited when I finally got this to work as I'd been working at it on and off for weeks. My 2005 Legacy GT interior now looks and functions like you might expect from a 2015. Check out the other videos before this one to bring your interior into the modern age. I used an iDatalink Maestro SW to program the aftermarket stereo to accept the steering wheel controls I set up.

It's not as useful these days with the advent of android auto and I suggest using a Spec B bezel as you see in my current car, much better fitment.
