you won't get battery drain on your 58 plate car

you can fit a mk6 wheel

but you will need a CH controller (I have these) and you also need to check what cruise stalk you have if fitted

Bump anyone?

As Eddie says you need a CH steering wheel controller and, if you do want cruise control, I believe the latest version is of the stalk is G. You'll also probably need an airbag wiring harness that supports multifunction.

Probably, as non multifunction looms don't have a plug which goes to the button controller.
