Adaptor to keep audio controls for Alpine headunit?

Does anyone know if an adaptor exists so that I can still use the stock audio controls on the steering wheel with an Alpine headunit? I have an Alpine navigation system just collecting dust. I don't want to lose the controls on the wheel by installing the Alpine unit. TIA.

Thank you very much for the link. Now, I just need to figure out who can get that part and who can install it. Seems like a lot of work to install.
Do you know if anyone has that part installed? Do you know if it works with the IVA-D900 headunit? TIA.

I don't know of anyone who has had it installed, or if it works with that headunit.
