Title: Steering wheel controls
Post by: Corrado1441 on 28 January 2012, 23:42:07

Hi was wondering if all the preface lift omega steering wheels where the same ? Reason I ask can I source the steering wheel control buttons and fit them to my steering wheel or will it not have the mounting points ?

Thanks

Im not at home at the moment,so cant be sure.I will need to have a look through my boxes of parts tomorrow morning.
I know I have a steering wheel with the buttons,but not sure if I kept the airbag.Make sure you do your homework before removing the wheel and the associated airbag parts.Need to make sure you dont set the SRS system off and also want it to work if needed after youve finished with it. :y

No problems Albs, does this sort of thing before so your safe in the knowledge there won't be a man injured by exploding airbag on the news soon  ;D

ive found most airbag squibs ive come across are already prewired and just sit there redundant so check your own first buddy
