They’re used for boats obviously, but also motorcycles and other applications.

Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

5 eligible posts · 0 unverified posts · 1 discussions match the subject in their title or opening post.

POST 1Original post

Edit: My car does not have the multifunction wheel. I have no buttons on my wheel at all. I installed a complete audio system in my daily-driven 06 Boxster S — sound deadening, CarPlay head unit, 5-channel amp, 3 way components, and a custom fiberglassed 10” sub in the passenger footwell (my wife is short!). It’s been about a month since I finished, and I LOVE the sound quality. But I miss the lack of steering wheel controls for at least volume/track. I’m not willing to spend $1k on a new OEM steering wheel — I have $3k in the whole system (and about 80 hours of blood and sweat). I’ve looked at fitting a marine remote, but I haven’t information of anyone doing this before. Who has a solution?

If you want to use the existing multifunction controls on your steering wheel, there are adapters for that.

POST 3Original post

Sorry I wasn’t more clear — I don’t have the multifunction wheel. No buttons on my steering wheel.

POST 4Original post

I don’t know what a marine remote is, sounds like something for a boat. Another option is to find a steering wheel with multifunction controls, but it will require programming and an adapter.

POST 5Original post

This is a “wired marine remote”: They’re used for boats obviously, but also motorcycles and other applications.

This is a source reference. Confirm exact model applicability in the original material.
