Steering wheel conversion
« on: May 19, 2013, 07:54:17 am »
Hi am new to the golf mk5 and could do with some expert advice! I have a standard gti flat bottom steering wheel on my car and have bought a Mk6 multi function wheel and want it to control the Alpine W928R stereo unit. I have researched a bit on how to do this but am unsure if i need to upgrade the steering wheel module. Can any one help please as dont want to start the job and get held up with waiting for new parts.
Many thanks
