sony or pioneer? you'll need an adapter indeed.

Pioneer ones are about 45€ mind, while the control-stick sucks anyhow...

...and even if you get it, it might not work properly. Mine kind of worked but changed the station when I adjusted the volume, which was really annoying. I mucked around with it, reset it, tried another stalk, etc etc but it still played up. Now I've removed the whole stalk until I decide what to do with it.

EDIT: Mine was an Autoleads adapter for a Blaupunkt head unit, but early type stalk. Maybe later 306 stalk with ISO connector is better, but I'd have to buy later Autoleads adapter too.

I've got a pioneer headunit and autoleads adapters to make it work on the stalk. Nice when its done. The adapters have a ridiculous amount of cables though I thought it was a joke to begin with.

I've got an Alpine head unit in mine. Bought the separate adaptor when I bought it and it's just a plug and play unit with ISO plugs on.. Works fine. Yes

You need two bits - the unit itself that mates to the stalk (2 different types depending on Phase 1/2 (large black stalk connector) or Phase 3 (smaller coloured ISO stalk connector)), and the patch lead for whatever stereo you are using. Will cost around £30 for both bits. The link below is for the earlier type (part no: PC99-X19), but the same company sells all the bits and can advise you on compatibility. I used it for something else and the people there were very helpful.

http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/PC99-X19-Peugeot-206-306-Stalk-Adaptor-Radio-Steering-Controls-Free-Patch-Lead-/150696203180

People get varying results with these so if you buy it and doesn't work you are on your own. My Phase 2 type did not work properly as stated above with the Blaupunkt head unit. Even if you have a Phase 1/2 car I would suggest getting the later Phase 3 stalk (less than £10 off ebay and easy to change over - just attaches to the steering wheel cowling with a couple of screws and wire dead easy to feed through dash), and the matching adapter for Phase 3 cars (Part no: PC99-X23).

Might leave it for now, I use an alpine remote as it is so I'm just being anal about having it working I guess!

I was that way but after spending money/time to no avail for no other reason than it was there and I wanted it to work have deleted the stalk entirely and I'm going to get the hole in the cowling covered over and do without.
