Presets

Is there a way to switch through PRESETS from the HUD (the screen next to the speedometer)? When I press up, it just cycles through stations it picks up, I want it to only go through the presets.

is SOLD
my salesperson told me they got rid of the option to go through presets through the steering wheel in 05 because old people got confused when changing the radio station. i wanted that feature because my friend has the option to scroll through his presets on his acura TL.
