If your car is prior (think it was) 8/04 production you need re retrofit an wiring harness from the steering column to the light switch.

Unplug the battery, wait 10 min. Take a long thin screwdriver and press the springs left and right in. The Airbag will pop out. Take a 16mm wrench and unscrew the steering wheel.

Here is a video:


The silver multifunction switches can be switched from your old Steering to the M wheel.

If you have SMG, I think you need a different steering wheel.

I need to say, I think the M wheel was one of my best mods so far.

OK, mine is 2008 3.0si with paddle shift and multi function buttons.
What is the correct part numbers that I need to get?
Is '32307906780' the correct one? (I dont want colored stiches)

And what is SMG????

Also could you measure the thickness of the M steering wheel? I would like to know how thicker that is.
Thanks.
