Thanks Tom

If you get a steering wheel from another PQ-based car, it should be a straight-up swap if adding paddle's coding will be required. If you want to get something fancy from an MQB car, you will need a LIN adaptor.
Remember to check airbag fitment, and that this era of cars had the Takata airbag recall; check the VIN from any donor has had its recall done.

Similar to mine would be good, mine has the paddles and radio, phone controls etc, so would I still require coding?Comment

If the button layout is the same and it's from the same generation vehicle, should be just plug-and-play.MY12 Passat FSI Highline | 3.6L VR6 | Cashmere Brown | Driver Assistance Package | Dynaudio | Discover Media | TPMS Direct | Side Assist | Adaptive Cruise | 3D colour cluster | More coming soon
