MFSW - what aftermarket stereos will work with it. NEW - phones linked to new MFSW

I get asked plus I see lots of questions on Mini2 about getting aftermarket stereos to work with the Multi Function Steering Wheel so I have made this guide.
The latest wheel (with phone buttons) can be linked to various phone kits; see below

UNIVERSAL SWIX
Works with most makes of stereos providing you have an IR remote for them (except hi band Sonys). Programable & can be reprogrammed if you change your stereo.
Has an IR LED which requires mounting and also needs a wire chopping under steering column. See Authorized dealer info for compatibility list.

PHONE HANDS FREE KITS
We now have adaptors to link hands free kits to the new MFSW with phone buttons & in some cases stereo & nav display.

Bluetooth interface; 2 versions available Wave or Boost. This links the Parrot evo bluetooth kit to the wheel & stereo. There is no need to mount the parrot controller as the 2 wheel buttons replace it. Functions; Answer/end call from the wheel, activate voice dial from wheel, call is played through car speakers. This interface is plug & play.

Cradle type hands free kit interface; Available for Boost. Ths links various cradle type hands free kits to the wheel, stereo & even sat nav. Using all the buttons on the wheel functions available; answer/end call, scroll through phone book, select & call, volume. The phone book/caller ID are displayed on the stereo and if fitted - sat nav screen, the call is played through the stereo. The interface is plug & play.
Compatible kits/phones;
Nokia cark91 - 5110, 6110, 6150, 6210, 7110, 6210i, 6310, 6310i
Nokia cark126 - 6100, 5100, 7210, 7250, 7250i, 3300, 6610
Ericsson HCA20 - t68, t68i, p800, p900, t300, t610, z600

We also now have MFSW relays - if you dont have a phone kit then why not use the phone buttons on your wheel for something else? e.g. garage opener, radio mute, starter etc

Pioneer DEH-P7400MP

Mike,

I am looking to fit the Pionner DEH-P7400MP (2003 Model) to my mini, currently it has the Boost, is there a hard wired convertor to use the MFSW? - if so what type of costs am i looking at for all adaptors, convertors, etc? I will also be looking to purchase the Nokia Bluetooth handsfree and wire that in aswell, is this compatable with this the pioneer headunit? - If i can not use the MSFW with the Pioneer headunit - I'll just still go for the handsfree on the Boost, any ideas again of cost for all the bits to make this possible?

Thanks

Leigh

Sorry but according to the JVC website that unit isn't remote ready
Thanks for checking Mike - Although according to my inst manual a remote control is available to buy for this head unit and on the fascia there is what appears to be a IR receiver.

Will this poss allow a MFSW adaptor to be used?

Sorry to be a pest!

Wul - the JVC doesn't have a hard wired input.
You are right about an IR input - so you could use the universal adaptor (not plug & play) but you would need the IR remote to program it. The advantage here though is you can program the buttons to do the freatures you want :cool: and if you change your stereo - just re program the adaptor :p

Le19h
There are 2 posibilties -
An IR mfsw interface - this has a harness adaptor built in but ÂŁ70 :eek:
Or the universal one - ÂŁ50 you would need the harness adaptor with this and it is not plug & play but can be re programmed if you change the stereo. You will need an IR remote with the radio to pregram this option.

harness adaptor ÂŁ6
aerial adaptor ÂŁ9
facia adaptor ÂŁ9
Nokia bluetooth ÂŁ105.75
plug & play phone interface ÂŁ47
If I can be of any more help, please get in touch

Yikes
I have got a prototype panasonic adaptor,
Wave connector (although can change this.)
It will only work with the 2 spoke wheel - any good to you?
They havn't put it into production cos they csan't get it to work with the 3 spoke yet

Mike
Ive got a cooper S with 3 spoke wheel and controls on order through Haliwell Jones' in Chester.
Could the universal IR adapter be usede to control my Xbox DVD reciever, hoping to mount it in the boot so am guessing the wires will need to be extended.
I know the Xbox uses universal IR codes because i can set my one for all to control it.
How much for a facia adapter, iso adapter, stering controls adapter and for fitting (aerial adapter not needed) - could you pm me a price?

H/K connection

Hey Guys, I have a 04 MCS with H/K system. Has anyone installed a signal converter on the H/K amp speaker outputs in the back to get RCA outputs for an amp? I am wondering how this will sound. I have 2 Rockford Fosgate 12's and Punch 351 amp. So I do not want to have poor input for the amp to work with. Thanks. Cameron

No reason I can see for the swix not to work with the xbox, but you will lose control of the stereo
