M235 Heated Steering wheel retrofit
Hi
I picked up a brand new, unused Msport wheel with heat for a bargain recently.
Since then I've got together:
New switch cluster suitable for heat and high beam assist
Wheel connecting line came with the wheel
Steering column cowl with hole for push button
Push button with wiring
Coding and fitting required, what do you think?
Ps paddles and airbag will need swapping across...
Pps donor car was sport auto too
Thanks
Keith

Re: M235 Heated Steering wheel retrofit
It can be done, fit the parts and I can code. Do you need wiring diagrams?

Re: M235 Heated Steering wheel retrofit
Great!
My only concern was that I'd need another 'steering wheel control unit', but I think they're all the same? I don't have any wiring diagrams at the moment. I'd be a bit nervous fitting these things myself though!
Would I end up with the 'Steering Heat activated' message on my dash too? (Full black panel)
Thanks...

I'd need to look at what is needed regarding steering wheel control modules.vtwin_man wrote: ↑Mon Sep 18, 2017 3:36 pmGreat!

Do you want this fitting and coding?
It will display any messages that it would if factory fitted.

Hi
Yes. I'm not confident enough to fit it myself I think
