One Interface to Control Them All

Finally, a simple solution to retaining the steering wheel controls of a vehicle when installing an aftermarket stereo. Introducing the Axxess ASWC, from Metra Electronics. This universal steering wheel interface is brand new for the 2010 line of Metra Axxess components and is designed to make the installers life much simpler. Unlike other steering wheel interfaces, the ASWC requires no manual programming. After making all the proper connections, this interface will automatically program itself with the new stereo and the vehicle. No more tedious programming of each button. The ASWC has a LED status light that will flash according to the programming and inform you when the sync is done. Its simple. Just plug it in and you are ready to go! Now installations can be faster, easier, and simpler! If you still prefer to do the programing manually, Axxess has left that as an option.

Ready for Any Aftermarket Stereo

No matter what type of vehicle or aftermarket stereo you are planning on installing, the ASWC has you covered! It is fully compatible with Pioneer, Sony, Alpine, Kenwood, Eclipse, JVC, and more. As long as the stereo has a wired steering wheel remote connection, the ASWC will connect and interface with the vehicle. Plus, the Metra ASWC is able to be updated. This means that the interface will never be out dated. For the simplest way to retain the steering wheel control in your car, choose the Axxess ASWC!

I've been installing for 10 years, and have been installing steering wheel control interfaces produced by PAC since they were released. I don't know what they are going to do. I just installed the Axxess ASWC last night into a 2008 Toyota Scion and I couldn't believe how simple it was.



Anyone who has any experience with the PAC version of the SWI Interface can probably relate to the 10 minute install 30 Minute Programming that the unit generally demands. With the SWI Interfaces you need to, make sure you have the correct unit for the manufacturer of the radio. You need to program the radio and each individual button on the steering wheel in a specific order, while holding down the programming button on the interface with a micro flat-head screwdriver. What a pain in the neck!



I will never install another SWI interface now that I've discovered the ASWC. www.Axxessinterface.com allowed me to print out step-by-step instructions for the install into the vehicle and were spot on with the wire locations. After I connected the power, ground, and 3 control wires I turned the car on and done. I couldn't believe it! I didn't need to touch anything, and every button on the wheel worked for it's appropriate function!



Way to go Axxess! Except now I may need to lower my price to install these things :-(

Installed the Axxess ASWC along with a Pioneer AVIC-x920BT in my 2004 Ford Expedition. Worked flawlessly the first time. Plugged/Wired everything up (Power, Ground, Control to Pioneer and to control wire in factory harness) and everything functioned perfectly with no programming or anything extra. Truly easy.

Very easy to install in my 350z. No resistors have to be used like in the competition's interface. I installed mine in a few hours but took my time because i am a novice, and i did a lot of soldering. Automatically recognized my kenwood DNX5120 and mapped all buttons except the power off button, which i will have to program manually but appears to be easily done.



There is no lag when pressing buttons

Great value

Very small; i dont have much room back there but it fits anywhere

Able to be updated with new firmware via usb for wider array of support for car models



i would recommend this

Been installed about 6 months now without a glitch. Easy to install. Programs itself to a Pioneer unit in a '10 Corolla without any intervention. Nice addition to installation.

First off let me say I was a 12 volt installer for about 8 years and I can tell you this is the easiest steering adapter I have ever installed. I got this with the Pioneer 4300dvd for my honda ridgeline. when I went on axxess web site to check vehicle compatibility, and it said it would auto detect my truck. They had specific instructions for my truck in .pdf that where SPOT ON. It was literally ACC power, ground, the green/red steering control wire and ground out the other thats it. I plugged it into the stereo and turned the key to ACC, it did the rest. It was way easier then any PAC ive installed and its cheaper to boot. Check out the website if your car is under auto detect get this all day long.
