Evening all, I'm still relatively new to this scene and I would love to retro fit a flat bottom steering wheel to my 05 TDI sport. Obviously needs to be as cheap as possible due to putting a GTI bumper on it (I know should have brought a GTI!) I don't have any experience or knowledge in this area so really need all your advice!
What exactly is required for this job?
1 flat bottom wheel!
2 my airbag?
3 best person to fit this?
Anything else???
Thanks in advance!

dunno what a normal wheel looks like off the top of my head might need a gti airbag also.. shouldnt need anything else either then that though if you do need the airbag
-
Look up a member called Eddie-NL
He fits a lot of steering wheels and I'm sure will keep you right on this matter!
-
Read alot about him, bit expensive and too far away but will pick his brains!
-
You never know what he's fitted for someone - they may be looking just to move an item on rather than gathering dust!
Always worth a PM.

Where are you based? Is the car manual or dsg?
-
Manual buddy and I'm on the south coast! What u thinking?
-
Do you have a 3 or 4 spoke wheel? Do you want the buttons on the wheel too as thats harder for a manual car!
-
3 spoke mate, I do not require the buttons!!
-
Buy the wheel your after and ask one of the many peeps on the forum to fit it for you (for a small charge). If you've not got Cruise Control, good time to fit it. :wink:

Already got CC! :happy2:

Iv got a flat bottom gti wheel for sale with airbag after fitting a mk6 wheel into mine. Pm me for price and details if your interested.

The fitting is easy. Take the battery off, turn the wheel a quarter to the left or right and there is a tab. Get a screw driver in there and the airbag pings off one side. Turn the opposite way and do same again. Unplug the airbag and then its just a spline bolt
