Add Steering wheel controls to your 03-06 Chevy

[WestButteTruck]

I did quite a bit of research before I took this project on, but like the results. When I got my 05, it didn't have the steering wheel controls. I don't know why I had to have them.....just a button and gadget kind of guy I guess. I like all the options you get, plus I don't need to look over or reach for the radio controls anymore while driving. Anyway, what you will need is....

New/used steering wheel with the controls and wiring in it.

Clockspring and wiring harness to accomodate the controls. There are 2 different harnesses. One for the light duty's, and another for the HD's. You can tell the difference by the number of connectors on your airbag. HD's only have one.

Steering wheel puller

The conversion took me approx 1 hour to complete. Swapping out the harness was easy although it looks complicated. Lots of little connections to undo.

Once you have the conversion complete, set up a date with your dealer to reprogram it for you.

My cost:
Steering wheel w/controls and harness (ebay) $125
Reprogram by dealer $35
6 pack of Moose Drool.....$7.50
Quality Control at your fingertips........priceless (sorry I had to do it)
