(I had lost the rotary remote plug after cutting it off!) Just cut the cable! If you cant get the steering wheel controls working then re-splice the cable together w/ RJ 45 cable ends & connectors that are used for Ethernet wiring, or terminal strips from radio shack w/ the screws on them & then tape it up or put it in a project box.

While you might somehow be able to find a broken C90 remote somewhere the probability is not that high I don't think... It would be far easier just to splice into the existing remote wires--I'm assuming you have the original wired remote though, is that correct? It won't ruin the remote if you just splice in. In fact if you cut the cord entirely it wouldn't ruin the remote--it could always be re-attached afterwards. I'd give a try to splicing into the wire though, you may be able to then utilise both the C90 wired remote and the steering wheel controls...

You could call them/email them and ask them if they will be getting more of them. Otherwise try Partsolver (www.partsolver.com), Tritronics (www.tritronicsinc.com), or a local Sony parts dealer to see if any of them have it in stock. Other than that there is eBay... However unfortunately on eBay usually they are bundled with either a C90, C910 or XDP unit that someone is selling; though you might be able to get the seller to sell it to you separately. You could also check out the classifieds on places like SoundDomain (careful who you're buying from on SD though, a lot of scams seem to go on there so make sure you buy from someone reputable if you find one there)... As for the wireless remote any of the RM-X40, X41, X47 will work fine (they are all pretty much the same exact remote with only VERY subtle differences). Its funny because these older bulky remotes used to be on eBay in numbers before but it seems now mostly the newer, thinner Xplod variety remotes are available. In any case the older ones do still pop up on eBay just not as cheap/plentiful as they used to be :( Sony DAPC does sell the X47 remote but it is $30.00 from there. The newer remotes made for the Xplod series will work with the older units but the buttons on the cross-key control will NOT work. IIRC, "MENU" will not work either. The new remotes actually have keys not on the older ones that will work with the older units, like the "LIST" button though. So you'll be able to use SOURCE, LIST, SOUND, MODE, ATT, VOL, and OFF; but the other buttons won't work. The cross-key includes the track FWD/BACK and REW/FWD keys as well as DISC +/-. Those keys will not work on the older units, so if you used one of them you'd be unable to change tracks/stations. The newer ones with the number buttons on them, those buttons won't do anything either. Also there are some wireless remotes that bear the mark "HiR" on them. These will not work AT ALL with any unit that does not have HiR capability, which includes any of the old school units (and even many of the new ones as well). Some examples of the HiR remotes are the RM-X5S, X6S, X110, and others. Roland M. Get some great ideas here for your sweetheart on Valentine's Day - and
