Due to the cost of a MFSW for my Polo..
I was thinking in just keeping the original steering wheel and just adding the controls to
It..

Is it as easy as that?
If not.. What will I need to add?
Ive need alot of these MFSW Modules.. Will i need this?
Do they connect direct to the back of my RCD510?

Sorry for the naivety..
Thanks!

You'll need to replace the wheel as a minimum assuming you do not have the leather wheel.

Depending on exactly what was specified originally and when it was built you may need to swap out control modules, airbag and/or the slip ring.

I have this wheel.. (This is not my wheel)

I was under the impression i can attach controls in replacement for the side bits on this wheel?

Am i wrong?

Thank you!

Whil not fit, because when u take the cover of your own steering wheel off there is no space. And the fitting is also diference.

So do you know if it can be done with different controls?

The right hand buttons will only work if you have a highline dash

Have you got buttons at present then?

I do not.
I would only need the left hand buttons

Some steering wheels look like they accept buttons but they will not

Youll also need the steering wheel controller to match

This is my steering wheel.. Found this picture on the internet so not my actual interior.

I have the 1.2 TSI with the 087 BCM installed.

If any of that helps..

You only need to add 2x wires and a new airbag loom

buttons probably won't fit your wheel

I have a wheel like the one in the picture you posted, but I think your Airbag might be different

How can I find out if my wheel will work with the controls? Are the codes or part numbers i can check and match up with something else?

Hi chrispy!

A few months ago i have the same problem.
The solution was to change the steering wheel, to flat bottom Scirocco mfsw.
Like that:
