This may be old info to some, but didn't see anything posted about this. Not sure if any others have an AVIC Pioneer headunit but I for one do and got pretty tired of not having a remote.. Well a little while back PAC came out with a working option!
"Recently @ CES 2010 PAC released a product that gives the avic z110bt (and others) the ability to use remotes. No lag and if used with the correct remote then it also allows activation of the voice function right from the remote!Not sure why pioneer removed the IR but this little add on from PAC is just what I was looking for. Part #: WRI-P works best with (CD-R510). This product completes the unit by giving it what it should have had in the beginning!"
Quoted from AVIC forum site... you can get the parts from Amazon for around $60 total.. But there you go!
