I think I know this but just want to make sure:

Will I be able to use the steering wheel controls for audio and bluetooth if I have an aftermarket headunit

Pretty sure it's a big NO but meh

 

Probably not, dont hold this against me though, you need a better source.

 

^^^ you're prolly right...but I hope there is a way to wire them so they would work

 

Oh im sure there is a way to rig it up real good, but would you wanna do that on a brand new beautiful 08 EVO X ?!?!?!

 

there is a way for sure u just gotta wait for the wiring kit to come out, it might be the same as the lancer

search there

 

this is really true, a waiting game.

 

You could use the controls with aftermarket headunit. You would just need to buy an interface that allows you to do this. I have included a website that you select which type of headunit you have and also you car. It will show you the info on what harness you need.
