Did you know? PAC also produces RadioPRO which is a radio replacement solution, with steering wheel
control retention built-in. This greatly expedites the installation of a new radio into your vehicle.
See if there is a RadioPRO interface for your vehicle, visit
www.pac-audio.com
and search "Radio PRO"
A. Verify compatibility and get vehicle specific installation instructions.
• Visit
www.pac-audio.com/swi
for the most current list of compatible vehicles.
Enter your year, make, model, and radio and download time saving, step by step instructions and
wiring information specifically for your vehicle.
Note that some vehicles require the use of an additional CANbus adaptor that is sold separately.
The appropriate part number is indicated in the "CAN" column of the Vehicle Install Information Guide (V.I.I.G.)
If you do not have web access, please take a moment to familiarize yourself with the included printed materials
such as the Vehicle Install Information Guide (V.I.I.G.) which contains many details about the installation in your
vehicle, and the Vehicle Connection Chart (V.C.C.) which has illustrations of the connection point in the vehicle.
• Check your aftermarket radios owners manual to ensure it has the proper connections for a wired remote input.
B. Prepare for the installation.
• If possible, install the SWI-RC while you are installing the new head unit. Keep in mind you may need to
plug in the factory stereo to locate certain wires; therefore do not complete the head unit installation until the
SWI-RC is working properly.
• Plan a general installation location for the SWI-RC, keeping in mind that the supplied wire harness is
two feet long, and the 1/8" plug harness is three feet long.
• Use a multimeter or approved measuring device for checking vehicle circuits.
