My 02 156 CD player broke and I replaced with a JVC mp3 unit. The steering
wheel controls don't work - you need an adapter (not just wires) and I
couldn't find one anywhere and no one here could find one either!

I think the original head unit was a blaupunkt (156 turismo with Bose).

Thanks a lot for the reply from GT and Pete,

The car had got a 10 CD changer before I bought it, but sometimes it
is really annoying to change the CDs now and then, so I am planning
to replace it with a after market mp3 player, After googling high and
low, I found that if we want to keep the steering control function,
we need to buy a stalk control adapter and something elese, I found
the cheapest one from lowcostcaraudio, they have got a lot of
adapters for different make of mp3, provided the head unit comes with
remote control function.

Thanks again.
