I`ve not yet seen a Pioneer that supports the display out feature, so nothing to connect to.

I have 2 pioneer units that both talk the MID and Steering controls

You need to find out if you unit supports 'sub display out'

If so you need to order a CA DPI 150, which will then talk to everything.

I have a DEH55BT, Ljay has the DEH700BT
so we both have similar MP3 playing, multi input headunits with built in bluetooth hands free.

The display...

It will give you the track number and a counter, no track info unfortunately
It will give you the RDS station name on the radio,
Displays PHONE for the phone, not the name / number
The unit also beeps whenever the steering controls are used, not particulary loud, but imo unneccessary.

Give me a shout if you want any more info on them  :y

just had a look at your headunit, too basic I'm afraid, it will work with steering controls, just not the MID
