Steering Wheel Control Adapter for Škoda ACV SWC 42A-1444-002-0

Retain the original radio control functions from the steering wheel when replacing the original radio with an aftermarket unit. Depending on the vehicle's 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 both technically and visually. Check if one of the listed OEM radios was originally installed. Verify the vehicle's functionality, system settings, and proper steering wheel control (SWC) operation before final installation.
