Hey Guys, I am very new to this forum but read alot already. I am curious to see if the steering wheel can be changed easily without (or maybe with) professional help. I have a 7.5 1.4 TSI and my multifunction steering wheel didn`t come with shift paddles. I would really like to have those because 1. they are just awesome to use 2. I am often driving in mountainside roads which aqure me to shift properly (not only for getting up and down safely but also for the fun part of driving there.
I looked up many sites but none really seem to fit my question. I read that the paddles should work if I just get a new steering wheel from ebay and mount it because for example the Variant or "better" versions have them too and the cables/electronics are pretty much the same.
Has anybody here done that or could tell me if that idea works out? I am not sure if I would like to change it myself because of the airbag and the fact that I have never really worked on cars before.
Thank you in advance and keep up the nice work!
