If you are talking about a 4th gen Firebird or Camaro...

A few threads about getting the steering wheel controls to work with an aftermarket headunit.

Those were just from the last 7 months.

In short:
* If that headunit has a provision for a wired remote, then you can get a PAC SWI-? (ex: SWI-PS works with Pioneer and Sony).
* If that headunit does not have a provision for a wired remote, but does have an IR remote, you'll need a PAC SWI-X. Its the universal IR version.
