Title: fitting an RS4 steering wheel to my golf
Post by: dansmith180 on June 30, 2015, 07:42:17 pm
As above I've been offered a B7 RS4 steering wheel and airbag for a good price and thinking about taking it. As far as I know its a straight fit (although buttons won't work) and was just double checking this is correct? Its a 2005 GTI currently without multi function wheel in case it makes any difference. Cheers.

Hey Dan

Yes, it is a striaght swap over, think the horn wire needs cut to fit.

The buttons will not work as the audi wheel design is different to VW...  :driver:

But what a great steering wheel to drive with one of the nicest wheels to have your hands on !  :jumpmove:

No problem matey ! Glad to help...   :happy2:

I changed back over to my GTI wheel and added the MFSW buttons, i like the extras with the buttons, but damm, I do miss the RS4 wheel...  :ashamed:

Good luck with what ever you do Dan.
