If you mean the steering wheel controls, then yes, there's an adapter for that.
And the quality of BT is fine, no problesm hearing and being heard. Although people can tell that it sounds different.

very nice, not too sunken.
the trim piece you used around the HU, is that the one from the HU kit or dash kit?

The little frame around the HU is from the dash kit. The one that came with the HU didnt fit.

I wish someone could make an carbon fiber dash kits for the lancer, instead of the crappy plastic one, evo-r makes the best one so far.the jdm one is still the best for fit and finish.

I've seen this one from Colt Speed offered by some vendor on this forum.


I'm planning to cover my dash by alcantara, so don't really care. CF dash kit is nice, but the rest of the dash will still be in crap plastic.
The Evo-R CF interior kit is nice to have though.

No, Evo-R and JDM kits are slightly different.
Here's the JDM kit (from the neibourgh thread):

That looks great! It looks super clean, and if you have no gaps, then it is certainly worth it!

What software gauges are you looking at?

Well, as I said there are small gaps around the HU (you can see them in the pictures), but they are hardly noticeable.

Still trying to decide. Here's the thread:

^ The gaps around the HU are no big deal. They don't look like anything from the pictures. It's the gaps around the dash kit that are annoying. I have a Metra kit, and although I'm living with it, I certainly don't like it.

Then it's the feature of US models. European 505/502 have white buttons.

Do you like the 502? I was thinking about getting it to replace my older pioneer 880.
