Default Xtrons & radio controls

Another Xtrons thread I know. My car would of originally had a Kenwood radio (didn't when I bought it) so has infrared radio controls. I have cut off the infrared box and left with a Green & white wire, a black wire and blue and purple wire. Are these wires any good with the xtrons unit or do i need to fit another type of radio controls to the car?

As long as the radio supports steering controls you only need a 2 wire connection, trying to remember it was last week after all



but think its the 2 coloured ones .

Its only a resistor network in the wheel buttons .

I connected mine up and you have to program it in settings but it sort of works in a random fashion. A bit like a lot of things on xtrons
