Only gmt800 01-02 gmc denalis and 02 escalades. And the colors used in them don't match our trucks they are all lighter Grey or tan
I have been wanting to do this upgrade to my trucks for a while now and want to try and get my hands on a tan denali wheel and bag to go with my med neutral tan (53c) interior colour but your statement has me a little concerned it might not match as well as I think it will and I might be better off painting a wood trim Escalade wheel and gmc bag to colour match my interior instead. I have not seen the comparison in person and only seen the wheels on marketplace posts. Do you have any material for comparison or maybe an 02 denali interior colour code?

I saw a tan Denali wheel with buttons in a junkyard this weekend.
They are -not- tan. They are an oatmeal color that would clash with the GMT400 tan.

What did you actually do to make it work correctly? I'm trying to do this modification myself but I still can't figure out how to wire the controls to comunicate with the stereo
The wire connector has 4 wires. And 2 circuits.

Illumination circuit
Grey-12v
Grey/black-ground

Control circuit
Yellow- 12v
Light Green-signal return

These i wired to the PAC device. The pac device had a 3.5mm jack that connected the my radio. How you program it depends on your radio. My sony unit had a section in settings to program all the buttons to whatever want them to be. That was the hard part as the instructions from sony were vague. Hope this helps
