I've never seen it done, but I'm confident that it can be. Mine is fairly easy as I have an aftermarket stereo so I just need to wire the tip buttons up to a JVC remote control and job done.

For a Symphony or RNS it would need the multifunction steering wheel module to be installed under the dash (it won't physically fit in the 3-spoke steering wheel) and the tiptronic buttons hooking up to whichever functions you want. The tip buttons are wired in parallel as standard but from memory there are enough free contacts on the clock spring to get them out individually. Hook the module up to the canbus lines and it'll talk to the radio just as if it was a proper multifunction wheel.
