[QUOTE="Lasherž, post: 8709996, member: 679555"] The steering wheel adapter plugs directly into a car connector and will be integrated with the harness that goes into the radio for things like door chimes and push to talk functionality. You shouldn't need the wiring diagram for the car using adapters, but you'll need to carefully match the wires between the adapter and the harness that you've been soldering on. At no point should you modify the car's original harness or wiring, always use adapters and do soldering on them. This should be made pretty easy using the instructions of the radio and the adapter in tandem. Something that you mentioned earlier in this thread is backup camera compatible. Did the car come with a backup camera? Oftentimes this is the integration that's the hardest to achieve with aftermarket conversion kits. Factory cameras tend to be quite high resolution and not all head units support that so you'll end up with black bars on each side of the video feed. On my 2014 accord for example there's no head unit and harness adapter that will allow my backup camera to function as well as it does stock so I've yet to upgrade that part of my system. [/QUOTE]
