So KS owners will know that there is the two separate modules for the CD player and the radio cassette player. What I want to know is; can i replace the CD player with say a Pioneer MP3/CD player, and have it still work with the radio cassette? I want to keep it working with that so that I can still use the buttons on the steering wheel for the volume etc.

Are there any ways around this?

Hey, I used to have a KS Xi (well sorta, thank god i aint no more :D) and yes you can, but till coast around a extra $200. I looked into getting it done and decided it wasnt worth it considering all decent decks have remores lol.

They put in a adapter which works by using the buttons on the steering wheel to send remote waves to the remote sensor on the deck or whatever.

So the controls on the steering are remote controled?? Are you serious!? They aren't wired up?? :shock:

They are wiredup, with 1 single wire (yellow from memory I think), but if you get the adapter to use them with a aftermarket deck, then its done by a remore system.

What is this adaptor you speak of? I would love to get my steering wheel controls working with my stereo again!!!

I was quoted almost $200 at Complete Audio (in adelaide) for it, I never done it tho, they are more of a wank factor "omg fully sick I got steering wheel control bro! does the VL turbo have that uleah?"

Man I am embarrased to admit that I used to brag about the poxy things that the verada xi's have I thought they were top ****, then go in say a EB/ED fairmont :D lol...

EDIT:- I had the wrong name of the place haahhaha

I don't think steering wheel volume control is a "wank factor" I think it's very useful. I use it all the time?

I'm sorry you feel embarassed about yourself because you owned an Xi.

I think you should be more embarassed about other things, rather than being embarassed that you were once proud of your car.

I'll pay that mate, you allways crack me :p I did like the car, but the novety soon wore off.. it's like... I dunno the say a skyline is a 1,600kg playstation... so the verada is like a 1,800kg Commodore64 :D boring and gutless :D

Is there a specific name for the adaptor??

I always found the controls to be very useful....and i always use the wheel controls in my gfs renault....you dont have to take your eyes off the road...

Someone I spoke to said "Cat 9". It didn't make sense to me, but it might to you :P

Oh and Skotty. You're an idiot... Verada is a damn good car.
