Hi Ross

These days everyone goes for the mk4 caddy mirrors they're readily available and are a straight swap.

Cruise is pretty easy too, replacing the indicator stalk, but you'll need Vagcom to activate it.
I don't personally know much about the OBD 11 tool so I'm not sure if you can do it with that.

ill have a look for the stalks etc and the vcds would that be all i need or would i need the parts for under the steering wheel? i have a 2010m 1.9tdi so pre change over i believe.

Ah okay, I'm not sure off the top of my head, you may need the ring that sits under the steering wheel, like for the loom but that might just need for steering wheel controls

This is the block from under the steering wheel that says I need pin 13 but I’m sure which one that is
