    Post back here and let us know if it works, so we have a record of what's compatible.

    All the wheels are the same. Airbags might be different. So do your homework making sure the airbag will fit yours. Also some have different airbag harness.

    It will fit. However, to operate the multi-function buttons and paddles shifters, you will also have to swap the following items:

    Elec. Modul - 5K0953569H or 5K0953569B

    Multifunction switch - 5K0953502M9B9 or 5K0953502C9B9
    http://keffervwparts.com/parts/2011/...icleid=1447457

    And for this steering wheel you will have to use the steering wheel without buttons airbag, is the only compatible, but you'll have to replace the airbag wire harness for this here:

    It will always be cheapest to just buy a complete wheel than piece together
