An
update finally got an MFSW with paddles from fleabay but even better a MK6 version.
Scanned my car for SWCM finding that its one ending with BR which meant I had to buy one ending in CH.
My slip ring was the correct one so saved some £'s notes there,so all there was to do was fitting it.
I pulled the negative battery terminal off and proceeded to the SW cowling.
Since I had taken the steering wheel cowling of before to see wether the slip ring was compatibile it was pretty straight forward to do this process again.
Next came the airbag coming off and a M12 spline to unwind the SW, no problems there,swapped the SWCM over with the CH version plugged it in.Attatched the MK6 SW and plugged the connectors for airbag and buttons and replaced the airbag into the SW.
Reconnected the -ve terminal and proceeded with the coding of the SWCM,at first the volume buttons only worked but found out after a scan that the rns 510 wasn't coded properly.
Once thats done all the buttons that are meant to work all work including the paddles.
Went for a drive to try the paddles out and wow what a joy having
extra control on gear changing and the RNS 510,totally reccomend this mod.
I would like to thank the guys on here for the help,you know who you are!
I've no pics yet but they will follow shortly.
PS what mods next BT and RVC maybe?????
