I dont think so try doing a search.they do make a unit that plugs into the control cable and then sends the signal via infared to the aftermarket unit allowing you to use wheel controls.

does it require cutting stock wires? i really don't like that idea. is there anything you can buy to just plug stuff in with? the most i would do is use splice connectors, but if it requires cutting factory wires in half, i'm not to fond of that.
