Steering wheel interface for W211

I started this thread in the W211 forum, but thought the info should also be here.

I've just finished building an interface to the W211 steering wheel controls for a Parrot Bluetooth kit. Details here:

Steering Wheel Interface

Hope this is of interest...

Amazing detective work and reverse engineering Dave. Very VERY nicely done.

I also have an Erricson, and would be curious as to how much you might charge to hand assemble another kit. (I have a T39m).

I travel a lot in europe and fell in love with it's size and lack of silly features I'll never use.

I'd also be curious as to how difficult you found the actual vehicle integration, and whether you think the CAN Bus signalling would be different between models (I have a w208).

Nice.

Since you have tapped into the CAN bus, it would not be hard, to make a low line level volume control for an aftermarket radio.

There are a lot people, here, interested in this.
