Steering Wheel Control Adapter for BMW / Mini ACV SWC 42A-1024-006-0

Retain the original steering wheel radio control functions when replacing the original radio with an aftermarket unit. Depending on the vehicle equipment, the range of functions, and the software of the newly installed radio, some functions may be limited or replaced by others. Compare the displayed wiring connectors with those in your vehicle and ensure they match technically and visually. Check if any of the listed OEM radios were originally installed. Verify the vehicle's functionality, system settings, and proper steering wheel control (SWC) operation before final installation.
