Apparently it dosnt like KENWOOD, JVC or SONY headunits! 
Only Pioneer would work with my Steering wheel controls.... !
and they have never had that prolem with vauxhalls ever' see i knew my car was unique... meh
i was at halfords 2 hours whilst they solved this problem... i went with the pioneer one and didnt have to pay the extra price for the unit   only thing is....
it dosnt have the output thingy for my sub and amp, so he also gave me the cable in which i need to get wired to the controls lead to work the sub and amp' sounds complicated but its 5 mins job 'apparently' .. the guy gave me his mates phone number who runs an audio business nearby'
so phi didnt need to kick off' in halfrauds today  ( somthing would have got smashed)
oh i tried to get a free air freshner thrown in also, but i think he forgot i asked...

some headunits really dont like stalk controls even if they have the provision for it,
kenwood are hit and miss,
jvc are worse,
alpine and pioneer are ok
sony are rpetty good, but thats cos the ppl who make the stalk kits liase with sony i belive.

If you get one from autoleads (armour automotive) 5/10 dont work, theyre totally hit and miss, pile of shit.
If you ask someone at halfords who knows what there on about they will be able to order a Connects2 one, theyre about a £5er more expensive but work everytime
