Hi Phil,
What steering. Wheel did you remove, I have plastic one on my Caddy 4 and it's terrible.
Thanks,
Graham

Nice steering wheel, are they expensive? My trendline caddy has the nasty plastic thing.

i was shy of 400 for the wheel and airbag new but you may require additional control units stalks etc to be compatible with your vehicle. a few members on here may be able to advise you further

I am considering retrofitting acc at the same time as front ops and headlight washers, conveniently enough my garage happens to have just bought the hella boards and software for performing the adaptations

I've always wondered if or when someone would fit a GTE bumper. I think they look fantastic and would be the only one I'd like to go for

Hi Phil, I wait with great anticipation for progress on your van. I get the impression it'll be one to watch. I've got the exact same steering wheel from the same supplier but haven't got the know how to fit it! I think DOC is involved with building the module to make it compatible with all working buttons. But it's not yet finished as far as I'm aware.

I hope its not! Bought the bloody thing so I could go silly with my mk6 haha! (although I do miss my autobox) What gen of caddy do you have, I believe my current steering platform is already the new Lin 2.0 so it should be plug and play for me as I already have a mf wheel. I have a new wheel without the cruise on my golf already but that was a little bit of rewiring amd changing out of control units to get illumination etc to work.
