About the Crux SWRNS-63U Wiring Interface
You'll only be able to retain your steering wheel audio controls with a compatible car stereo made by Alpine, Blaupunkt, Clarion, JVC, Kenwood, Pioneer, or Sony. No other brands are currently compatible. Check the Details tab to see if steering wheel audio controls are retained in your vehicle.
Add a new radio
Installing a new car stereo can often mean losing your vehicle's steering wheel audio controls. Crux's wiring interface solves this problem, allowing you to install a new receiver while retaining the steering wheel controls.
Connect the SWRNS-63U to select car stereos (see Details for more information) and you'll be able to keep most factory features intact. The interface does not support amplified systems or rear seat entertainment, and it doesn't retain factory navigation.

Featured review
Excellent product! All my steering wheel controls on my '08 Altima are retained! Works seamlessly with my Kenwood double din Navigation headunit! On my Altima like the prior reviews, the brown wire on this product needs to be disconnected. I got this product to work with no problems!

Steering Wheel Control Retention: The CRUX SWRNS-63U also features a steering wheel control output for Pioneer, Sony, Alpine, Clarion, Kenwood, JVC, and Blaupunkt aftermarket head units. The steering wheel control output consists of a right-angle 3.5mm connector and a light blue/yellow wire (use the connection that your aftermarket head unit is fitted with). The SWRNS-63U interface module will work with any of the above listed aftermarket head units, by setting its dip-switches (see owner's manual for appropriate setting).
Note: In select Nissan vehicles, the factory Bluetooth buttons on the steering wheel are routed through the factory Bluetooth module. The factory Bluetooth module cannot be retained with the new aftermarket radio. You must bypass the factory Bluetooth module by plugging in the NSBT-BP (included in the kit) to the Bluetooth module to use the factory Bluetooth buttons.
Wiring Harness: The SWRNS-63U includes a wiring harness with a single 20-pn molex connector that plugs into your vehicle's factory radio harness. the SWRNS-63U interface module. On the other end of the harness is a 12-pin connector that plugs into the interface module. The wiring harness also provides bare-wire leads (power/ground, speaker, illumination, antenna, turn-on, and vss) which will need to be hardwired to your aftermarket head unit's wiring harness.
