I have a 2011 Mazda 3 GX and what to install the Audio and Cruise control option on the wheel. Where can I obtain this equipment and is it only the controls that I need to install or is there any other more equipment that needs to go in ?

are the wires all there , and does the radio need to be changed to be bluetooth ???

you can find the steering wheel or just the controls pretty cheap on kijiji or ebay. all the wiring is there, it's plug in play. You'll have to get the Dealer to calibrate on the cruise control, but it should be quick and easy (basically just a bit flip). Audio controls (volume/seek/mute) will already be working

not sure what else you need to get bluetooth working, but i imagine at the very least, there's a separate BT module, another calibration update, radio update (maybe just software, maybe hardware). someone else whose done it could probably chime in.
depending on whats involved, you may be better off just getting cruise and then putting in an aftermarket head unit with BT already. Also pretty sure in 2011, BT was only for phone calls, not media streaming
