Mkv golf gti edition 30 steering wheel in polo gti?

[Gti Dave]

I did it with a 30th anniversary Ed and used the original Polo airbag. The only thing that didn't match were the little plastic clips on the front left and right of the wheel.

Cheers for that mate. is the fitment really bad? is there a massive gap or something? pics???

The gaps are behind the wheel, around where your fingers tips are pointing when you hold the wheel and 9 & 3. Unless you're looking for it you won't notice. As far as using the polo wheel plastic clips, this could be done if you're prepared to use some 3M tape or a touch of glue.

Cheers for that mate. Have you heard of any insurance issues regarding the swapping over or changing of airbag steering wheels?

[Gti Dave]

Called my insurance company regarding any issues with swapping over the steering wheel and was told that its covered and won't void insurance if it doesn't affect the vehicle's roadworthiness and would need to ask vicroads about it. Aparently there's a "change of vehicle description form" to fill out. Guess I might have to do this for the tiller upgrade and brake upgrade?

Anybody know where to source the Golf ED30 wheel? Looks the goods, would love to change my wheel out of the price is right

[Gti Dave]

Got it from tmtuning.com

Awesome.

Bit more $ than i would have hoped but its a 'down the line' mod for me anyway :p

It is much bigger than the standard Polo wheel, and did you have any problems with installation and finish at all?

[Gti Dave]

Unfortunately I'm still waiting for it to arrive. Been more than a month now. Will post once arrived and fitted.

As long as it deploys the insurance company wont say anything, but if you get into a frontal accident and it doesn't deploy, and you get hurt, they will most probably look into it.
