 SWI-X May 30, 2008
Product worked just as advertised. Rec'd item in mail in decent amount of time and with no issues
 doesn't work with every stereo, not really universal December 31, 2007
This adapter did not work with my JVC stereo. And no, I didn't try to install it myself, I took it to a professional who called PAC when he continually experienced problems getting this adapter to connect to my stereo. The PAC rep told my installer that the adapter wouldn't operate my JVC stereo, and that I would need to order the PAC adapter made for JVC. (I did and that one works well.) But, this is not truly universal - at least it wasn't when I tried it about a year ago.

This is a great product! So simple and easy to install and program. Just take care, the IR LED is a bit fragile so don't force it.
Great Steering Wheel Control Replacement July 18, 2007
This unit works great. 3 wires to hook up, and your factory steering wheel controls work flawlessly with your after market head unit. The only real downside to this unit is programming. Everything has to be programmed in one pass. There is no way to change the action of a single button. There is also the problem of changing the programming after you've installed the unit. Most likely you will want to mount it behind the radio. The problem comes when you want to reprogram. You have to take everything apart to get to it again. The unit works great. Just make sure you plan ahead, and make sure you have everything the way you want it before you finish the install.
Control any stereo May 13, 2007

I bought the PAC Swi-X to run an aftermarket stereo on my Harley Davidson Electraglide. The Swi-X gives me the versatility to run almost any aftermarket radio on the market using infra-red remotes, and allow me the freedom to choose which commands I want to assign to the handlebar mounted switches.
The Swi-X is nothing more than a "learning" remote control, with a remote located infra-red transmitter. You wire it in, then teach it the commands from the hand held remote that comes with the aftermarket stereo.
The hardest part is wiring the resistors into the stock wiring harness. If you are not comfortable with a soldering gun/pen and 12 volt electrics, pay someone else to do it. I gave it four out of five stars only because the wiring is not for everyone.
