    Default changing steering wheels on a VS

    looking at changing the steering wheel on my vs for one of them ones with the volume controls on it.. ( my model didnt come with an airbag) question is it it possible to fit it into the car, if so how hard is it to rewire it all?

    i think it would be quite difficult because those wheels all have airbags, so you would need to set that up, although re wiring the stereo to the steering wheel would be easy i would assume because im sure it is colour coded otherwise just look it up on here.

    As above for changing the centre.


    The buttons use the single horn wire to send a signal (varying resistance) to a module that is mounted to the BCM, from there the signal is converted to a signal to drive the factory head unit.

    A remote control head unit would be simpler.
