Great write up B7Gav ! Thanks for taking the trouble to do this
Fitted mine this afternoon, having had the cruise switch for a couple of weeks, just waiting for a couple of free hours to complete the job.
All went fine, the only thing i did diffently was; I just disconnected the small 'mfsw buttons / airbag' harness from the connector and left the airbag connected to that harness. To remove the steering wheel, had it turned 180 degrees (ie upside down), the airbag pod itself happily sat into the steering wheel, thus allowing to be removed as one.
I didnt order the lower cowl, just used a dremel to cut the cowl to the templated marks on the inside. Fitted a treat !
Just need to get the coding done next week when its over at the independant specialist...... I'll be keeping the ol' fingers crossed that it all works fine !
Thanks again B7Gav
