Hello folks.
I have just bought a pre-owned A2 1600 FSI.
I was happy to find it with the open sky, but no chance to find the leather 3-spokes steering wheel.
Since I have also a 2006 Sportback, I am thinking of buying a TT-RS wheel for the Sportback and, eventually, swap the A2 unit with the old Sportbak one.
My actual Sportback wheel is like this http://cgi.ebay.it/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=250593192849&ssPageName=STRK:MEWAX:IT (but without paddles, so just plain).
I ahve found some general infos in the forum about the fact that the swap is feasible, as long as some wires are changed.
So, my question is (and probably skepton is the man for the answer):
- is there any trouble in physically fitting the wheel in the A2 (knob wise;
- if positive, as for the wires, which are the changes to be made? Can it by managed simply via VAG (I have 704 version) or is there stg which needs to be replaced or reassembled?
Please consider that the most obvious solution (bring the car to skepton) is not an option for me, considering the location.
Thanks to you all.
