Review: flawless setup - so much simpler and more reliable than an axxes axswc-2. setup and programing was a breeze. worked on first plug in Review: Does what it says, and a LOT more! - EXCELLENT product. I installed it on a 2010 Spain built (VSK) Nissan Navara (Tekna) and it works perfectly. This is a UK/Australia model (non North America), so the particular steering wheel was not listed. For the programming, I selected the 2010 Nissan Pathfinder with the 6 disc CD changer, and paired it with a Kenwood DMX4710S head unit. The compatibility was spot on. I was also able to programme more features in the SWC than what came in the original setup. VERY good quality and value for money. The programming was easy and so was the connection. I DEFINITELY recommend!!! ## Features - Adds Steering Wheel Audio Controls to an Aftermarket Stereo - Steering Wheel Control Interface: The iDatalink Maestro SW Universal Steering Wheel Control Interface lets you retain your vehicle's OEM steering wheel controls when replacing the factory radio with an SWC-compatible aftermarket radio. - The Maestro SW lets you retain original steering wheel functions and assign a secondary press & hold feature to the buttons of your choice. - Compatibility: Keep your steering wheel controls when upgrading your car stereo.

I DEFINITELY recommend!!! ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ The best part is that each button on the steering wheel can be programmed with two functions each. *by M***9 on December 8, 2025* Excellent product! I installed a new Kenwood stereo in my FJ Cruiser and to activate the steering wheel controls, I installed Maestro Sw. It worked perfectly; the buttons function flawlessly, and best of all, you can program each button with two functions. So, I also used the volume down button to reject calls by pressing it briefly and hanging up, and the volume up button, when pressed briefly, answers phone calls! The manufacturer provides clear instructions. ## Frequently Bought Together - Maestro ADS-MSW Universal Analog Steering Wheel Interface - Metra Electronics 70-5520 Wiring Harness for Select 2003-Up Ford Vehicles, MULTI COLOR - Metra 95-5812 Double DIN Installation Kit Fits SELECT 2004-2019 Ford Vehicles -Black. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.pt/products/78040517-idatalink-maestro-sw-steering-wheel-control-adapter-ads-msw-connects](https://www.desertcart.pt/products/78040517-idatalink-maestro-sw-steering-wheel-control-adapter-ads-msw-connects) --- *Product available on Desertcart Portugal* *Store origin: PT* *Last updated: 2026-10-07*
