I'm going to guess a steering wheel mounted iPhone remote.

I'm courious what HU he's ruining b/c it looks a lot bigger than 7", perhaps 9"?


Edit: should have taken a better look as there do clearly look like paddle shifters.

Ok, so what I want to know is, who`s gonna do this conversion first?

smh... its paddle shifters.. if you look in the front and rear of the wheel you will notice buttons as well... remember the premacy is moved more up in price in other countries... for example power sliding rear doors are available everywhere else EXCEPT the U.S. whack huh??? but its the only way it can stay competitive by removing things that would push it into 30k price range and into actual minivan territory..
