The Dealers usually install a pioneer unit as an aftermarket solution - I am not sure what the model number is, but if it's the same one you have quoted, then they should be able to restore "wheel" functions.
I suspect your car isn't factory new - so what year is it? and what unit is currently in the car

Ok, so you have a white (highline) MFD. You should be able to retrofit bluetooth (if not already installed).
Have you looked at the compatibility of the pioneer unit? is it going to be dealer fitted?

Is the display between the speedo and the tacho red or white? It makes a difference to what can be done.

Are you certain no Bluetooth? Is there a styrofoam box under the drivers seat?
