hello there
I have seen a few on-line both mk5 & mk6 non dsg, im sure you will find one if you have a proper look.
I guess there is part suppliers on this site somewhere but fitting a dsg wheel to a non dsg car seems strange.
would like a mfsw myself so will be good to see if anyone helps you

A dsg wheel with paddle can be fitted to a manual car.

Obviously the paddles won't work

Would it not be annoying having (and feeling the paddles) and them not working?

^^^^ didn't know that they could be removed, thanks for the info. I'm like you, I have an Eddy without DSG or a MFSW.

^^^^ don't get me started on my car either. Mine must have been originally been bought by a right tight arse, I've spent ££££ adding what should have been standard.   :laugh:

I could be wrong but I believe the Highline was a very cheap option at the time (read somewhere £50) so can't believe some cars don't have it.

They question should be why didn't VW make it standard than?

yes I did see somewhere they where about £50 as you say from factory, I think its got more to do with the buyer of the car not really knowing about it and the benefits  :pomppomp:
