GTI, Scirocco steering wheel.....

[Riker]

Thought we should start a new thread for the Golf GTI, Scirocco steering wheel.

You would know we have been speaking of these in another thread as an upgrade to our Passats. Clip has fitted one to his Tiguan & by all accounts it has been a great success.

In the other thread I posted a link to Bricarauto in the EU that can supply the GTI, Scirocco steering wheels. Here is the link to Bricarauto in the EU. I received a reply from them earlier this morning regarding the s/wheels & international shipping:

Hello James,

It is not possible for us to send steering wheels with airbag to countries
outside the European Union. (security issues in the transportation by air)

You can buy only steering wheels without airbag.
Soon our website will have this option.

Best regards,
José

Unfortunately, it seems we need to keep looking at our options.......

What about transport by sea? Would take a while, but solves the problem.

I had no issues getting my GTI steering wheel from the UK and retrofitting it.

Purchased mine from here. Doesn't have the GTI badge but I preferred it this way.

Not to the Tig Riker (sold that 11 months ago now), I fitted it to the Passat. The flappy paddles really make best use of the DSG. Best mod I've done. Love it!

Thanks clip....

Is there a DIY to fitting the Flappy padles, or if I am asking that question I shouldnt be attempting it.

[Ryan_R]

I linked to one in my post ^

Hmm Yes, saw it 2 mins after posting lol.

Don't forget cc's got them, so you may be able to get steering wheels from the states.

ok, i'm in on one too if someone's organising GB!

i found a cc one ex airbag on ebay, but not sure if the standard wheel airbag will fit and not willing to risk it!

so.. a group buy and a group fit???
