New wheel and paddle shifting at last!

Thanks to Duffy (for the wheel), Mattylondon and a scrapyard in Worseley (for the airbag as mine wouldn't fit).

This is how the car should have come from the factory.

Forgot to ask, coding enables the tip buttons?

Johnmed 17th September 2015 02:51 PM

Yup. One digit changed and boom

Ha. The thought did cross my mind as I rewired the replacement airbag in place, battery disconnected or not. Felt a bit like Jack Bauer with another bomb and another coup d'etat to sort out.

Was it as easy as just changing the wheel ? No wiring ? Then coding.

Hi Simon. It was very easy. No additional wiring, and quick coding.
