Alternative to PAC RP4-MZ11

[ikerg]

Gents.
I know this has been discussed before...but just to gather the info.

It is well known that the RP4-MZ11 is the best interface to retain Bose and all the features

I want to install a pioneer appradio3 on my Non-Bose cx-5 (2013) touring.

Which ia the best alternative (cheaper and easiest) to retain the steering wheel controls?. Can the interface programmed for long/short pulse to specific function?
I want to keep my oem reverse camera, so the interface should have this option.

Many thanks in advance

If you've seen the discussions, then you must have seen this: http://www.mazdas247.com/forum/show...heel-adapter&p=6278107&viewfull=1#post6278107

There are a couple of cheaper alternatives to the PAC, but they do not provide as much functionality. So choose cheapest, or choose easiest/best. Not sure what else you are looking for here.

Reverse camera has nothing to do with the steering wheel interface. See: http://www.mazdas247.com/forum/show...arket-Stereo&p=6278643&viewfull=1#post6278643

Camera is 6V and not 12V. You will need a converter.

I know that of 6v. I read some problems of specific interfaces in order to get he reverse signal

It is just to know is anyone has mounted successfully any other interface than the PAC one. It is double of price than the others and if I had Bose I wouldn't doubt.
But the fact is I have not Bose amp.

Scoshe swc?
Axess awsc-1?
Axxess swi-ps (for pioneer)?

Did you READ the link I gave you? Pros/Cons listed in that thread.

Bottom line, go with the PAC. I'm a cheap-assed SOB and I would've bought the cheap ones had they been worth it. They are not. The (extra) adapters do not have all the physical wires you need, and none of them give you a reversing signal.

I did read the post...finally I will go for the PAC...to avoid future issues

Many thanks redbaron
