As I was browsing around this site and other Mustang mod sites I had something that I've been wondering, but never thought to ask until now.

For the stock steering wheel it has the ability to control your cruise control (at least in my 2007 it does), is it possible to get another wheel that could control the radio or change songs that I play through the auxiliary jack, or am I stuck with just cruise control. It doesn't matter either way I was just curious because it's a hassle to look away real quick to change songs!

you can modify your steering wheel to change the radio functions. But you can't have both.

Alright thank you! Just something that I've wanted to do (I know theres various wireless remote things to use for the auxiliary port) and wasn't sure if it was possible


Also I only spent $17k on my '07 new

Good find! The dealer said that they would give us 0% for 72 months so we bought new

If you do enough research, it may be possible. You'd need to find a (Ford) vehicle that has the options (buttons) you want, then make sure it has the same size clock spring that could be swapped out. Then it's a matter of a new wiring harness, possibly new radio to accept the new input, a new clock spring and new steering wheel with the buttons.

I think the '11's have the radio buttons on the wheel. Maybe you could swap one out.
