The steering wheels without radio controls are rare enough, but I've yet to see an irmscher facelift one with radio controls.
I think your best bet is 'irmscher lenkrad omega', or 'wuzelholzlenkrad omega' on ebay.de
My last search for that a few days ago, turned up two without radio controls, not sure if it's possible to fit radio controls to a wheel without it originally, if possible I'd try and do that...thought about it myself a few times.

I went down the route of buying an Irmscher wood steering wheel without audio controls in the hope of converting to accept them.
The bottom line is you will need to do major surgery to get them to fit as you have no fixing holes and the side will require trimming to get the airbag cover to fit,and i am certain the finished result would not look too good.

I have seen the two without radio control on Ebay.de... But it's not that what I'm looking for... I don't like doing DIY for that kind things... I hoped someone on the forum have one to sell...

I have a genuine Irmscher wood wheel here,which will be up for sale in a few weeks...it doesn,t have the audio controls as said before I didn,t want to go down the DIY route either and end up with a poor job and a knackered wheel which would be worthless.

Yes they do exist, Irmscher wood effect with radio controls, they also did them in gloss or matt finish. I've got one and its gloss a perfect match for my miggy's interior. Bought mine off Ebay at auction a couple of yrs ogo it came off a Vectra B (They had the same spec as an option)I thought all my Xmas's had come at once I got it for 57.00.I dont think the guy realised its true value with it being ex Vectra B. I searched the web regular for months before and missed a few I recall they were going for 200.00 plus they cost 500.00 plus new from Irmscher,There it is I thought I'd let you know to look for a Vectra B or Omega. Hope you have the same luck as myself :y :y :y

Thank you for the inquiry! I thought it was different on Vectra... By chance, you don't think to sell yours...? I'll never have the same chance of you ^^

Sorry Dany,just couldn't part with it,I've got used to it, would be hard to return to a standard leather one. If you keep trying on Google and ebay one will come up i'm sure :y :y

It is possible to convert a non-'lenkradbedienung' to a 'lenkradbedienung' version.
How I know ?
I did it myself, for a good friend.
With a lot of patience, love (and a Dremel :D ) you will get a near to identical version.
My friend is at my house this weekend... I will take a few pictures before he leaves, so you can see the result for yourself (he also had the black parts 'painted' (by a professional company) to match the color of his dash).
If you wouldn't know (that color was never available by Irmscher), you wouldn't know it wasn't standard  :y
