Why this module exists.
Every 70 Series LandCruiser built before the facelift left the factory without steering wheel controls. If you want them, the obvious path is to swap the clock spring for one with the right contacts. The clock spring is an essential part of the SRS airbag system, so PVS designed around it instead of replacing it.
This module is that alternative. It taps only into the horn power circuit, so you don't need to touch the clock spring, cut any factory wiring or build a custom loom. The result is a fully reversible install that works with the most popular aftermarket headunits on the market.
Select the headunit brand installed in your vehicle from the variant options above. Your kit is matched accordingly so the controls map correctly from the moment you plug in.
Built for a clean install.
NO CLOCK SPRING REPLACEMENT
The module operates entirely through the horn power circuit, so your factory clock spring stays in place. Your vehicle remains ADR compliant and roadworthy.
PLUG AND PLAY SETUP
No custom wiring loom and no dash surgery. The kit connects using existing circuits for a straightforward, reversible install.
BROAD HEADUNIT COMPATIBILITY
Select your headunit brand at checkout. The kit supports Factory Toyota Radio, Alpine, Pioneer, Kenwood, Sony, JVC, Android units, PVS, Polaris and Aerpro headunits.

Installation overview.
SELECT YOUR VARIANT
Choose the headunit brand installed in your vehicle before you start. The module is configured to match your selected headunit for correct button mapping.
CONNECT TO HORN CIRCUIT
The module draws power from the horn power circuit only. You don't need to modify the clock spring or factory steering column wiring.
CONNECT TO HEADUNIT
Plug the module into your aftermarket headunit using the appropriate interface connection. No custom loom needed.
TEST CONTROLS
Check each steering wheel control function works through your headunit before you refit any trim panels.
Check your wheel is 12-pin.
This module reads a 12-pin steering wheel control connector. Every genuine PVS 300 Series wheel is 12-pin, and so is a factory 200 Series facelift wheel. If the plug on the back of your wheel isn't 12-pin, it won't connect to this kit.
This catches people out. A lot of 200 and 300 Series style wheels sold through Marketplace and overseas sellers arrive with a 10-pin plug instead. Those wheels were built for a pre-facelift 200 Series or 150 Prado, which has a 10-pin clock spring and already has factory controls. They were never designed for a vehicle with no controls at all, which is what this module is for. Same looking wheel, wrong plug, and no amount of wiring at our end changes that.
So before you order, turn your wheel over and count the pins in the control plug. If you're not sure, send us a photo of the back of the wheel and we'll tell you straight away whether it'll work. We'd rather answer that question before you buy than after.
If the loom is cut. Cutting, splicing or re-pinning the harness is a modification, and once that's done the lifetime electronics warranty no longer applies and we can't support the wiring. We don't supply pin-outs, and we don't supply 12-pin to 10-pin conversion diagrams for wheels we didn't sell, because we don't hold the drawings for them. An unmodified kit can go back within 30 days.
Buying another wheel? It won't be ADR compliant.
This module adds the buttons. It can't make somebody else's steering wheel compliant. A wheel that's never been assessed can't be shown to keep your vehicle compliant, and you're the one who gets asked to explain it.
- No report to hand anyoneA consulting engineer, a vehicle certifier or an inspector at the roadside can ask how the modification was assessed. Without an assessment there's nothing to show them.
- Your insurer is entitled to knowChanging a part of the airbag and steering system is a material modification. If it hasn't been disclosed and assessed, a claim can be reduced or refused.
- At fault, the exposure is yoursIf an unassessed modification is found to have contributed to a crash, you can be left carrying the repair bill, the other party's damage and a personal injury claim.
- Registration and your green slipYour state requires the vehicle to keep complying with the standards it was built to. Registration, and the green slip attached to it, both rest on that.
- Most aftermarket wheels replace the clockspringThe clockspring is part of the SRS airbag circuit and is specific to your vehicle. Swapping it for a generic unit to gain button contacts cuts into the original safety wiring.
- No warranty and nobody to callOur lifetime core warranty and Sydney based support cover PVS steering wheels. They don't cover a wheel bought somewhere else.
Compliance and insurance requirements differ by state and by insurer. Confirm your own position with a licensed automotive engineer and your insurer.
