If not, I wasn't going to lose any sleep over it. My new Kenwood is a touch-screen, but it has a volume knob which is great. The only thing I ever used the steering wheel controls for was picking up and hanging up the phone.
They ended up trying a couple of different steering wheel control interface devices and nothing worked. They said units that worked for Lancers would not work for the Mirage?!? They finally gave up because I told them I really didn't care either way.
The mirage has to be the weakest stock stereo I've ever heard.
I think this is the first car I've had where I regularly drove around with the volume all the way up as the normal listening level.
