EQ with wired remote volume control

Just installed the clarion eq everyone uses yesterday and in the near future will be installing a head unit that will transom and bow wired remotes.

From what I hear you are supposed to adjust the volume through the EQ, but that defeats the purpose and point of the wired remotes.

What is the best way to set this up to still be able to use the wired remotes when hanging on the beach and in the coves?

Any help here is appreciated!

Thanks!
