You'll need a new wheel, slip ring, & most likely new steering wheel controller too. It's a big job :wink:

cheers fella, think i will be leaving that for a while then

its not such a massive job...

if you already have a 3 spoke steering wheel, then its a fair bit easier as the airbag is the same...

then its just a case of finding the steering wheel from ebay/forum, hunt around in a salvage yard for a steering control module and if your car already has cruise and trip computer, i doubt you'd have to change the slip ring, i didnt and i have a 'basic' 1.9tdi sport model...

Richn83:
you will also need a new airbag wiring harnes as there are two versions basic one for horn and airbag and MF version with an extra wire.

JoeDarKa:
It doesnt have to be expensive, I got my Mk5 MFSW off apples12 for £65 and bagged a Mk6 one for much less than the Mk5 one! Just take your time in collecting the bits! Airbag loom is £25. Slip ring is £30-40. The only expensive thing is the module!
