Anyone know how hard this would be?
I am guessing if i get the same style wheel then the AirBag will be the same unit?
Will the loom be there for the buttons? I have cruise control and DIS
Will i be able to control RNS-E / Blue tooth?
Will i be able to SDS to work?
Airbag should be ok, just match up the wheel with airbag colour, sometimes can be off colour but 99% time its ok & loom comes with airbag, so you might have to update your airbag loom for the button functions to work, cruise is irrelevant when it comes to loom as cruise stalk plugs straight into the column, given looms inside wheel then why would this affect the cruise etc, common sense prevails.
Yes to RNS, BT & SDS as long as you code & wire it all correctly.
Hi Steve - This is a straight forward plug and play swap. Your old airbag will work fine and because you already have cruise then your steering module won't need replacing.
The loom for the buttons is attached to the wheel itself so you just plug it in to the car loom when you remove the old one. To get it to control RNS-E, bluetooth etc you will have to recode with vagcom so it knows that you now have a MFSW and to get the other stufff to work as well.
All B7's have the same steering module so its irrelevant if you have cruise or not.
& no the wheel doesnt come with the loom, it usualy comes with the airbag, also its a seperate item to buy so also individual part.
So will just be a quick change!
Hope so! Going to try and get the MFSW tomorrow, and installed over weekend.
Anyone got a guide to remove the wheel?
There are 2 holes at rear of wheel, get a torx bit to undo the 2 bolts, they maybe covered up with 2 covers that just pop of to reveal the bolts, do with ignition of & press airbag inwards to take tension of the bolts so easier to undo & remove.
Dont rush into like a bull mate, take your time & dont rush it, rushing breaks stuff, trust me, patients required for these things
