Mk7 steering wheel into mk5 gti
« on: August 20, 2014, 11:24:46 pm »
Has anyone done/tried this yet? I guess it should fit. But more getting the horn / mfsw buttons working?

I've been given a flat bottom mfsw and just seeing if it's possible yet / at all. Thanks.

Thank you, I did search but I couldn't see anything. I have a friend who's physically fitted one but no buttons work.

I guess it will be down to having the correct steering control module.

Nice mate. What controler are you using? And does the horn work?

Looks good!! Wish it was a bit more of a chunkier wheel like the mk6 and mk5 flat bottom wheels though :/ ...

I know a fantastic guy called Alex, from Redditch that does VW upgrades.

He fitted this mk7 steering wheel into my mk5 Golf to test and got all the button working.

I already had the mk6 MSFW fitted and the old controller wouldn't work.
Had to have new controller, modified wiring loom and a few other bits changing to work.

It is doable though.  Have witnessed it fully working in my car!

IMHO I don't think you can beat the mk5 flat bottom one  :driver:

I fitted a mk7 type FB Gti wheel (was from the current new polo gti so had red illumination) worked fine although the cruise buttons didn't work so best to get one without the cruise buttons. You would also need a CH controller
