Hi,
Im almost 99% sure its a no..
The Mk4 wheel may fit the column, but the airbag connections are different, as is the slip ring connections.
The Mk3 slip ring will not fit the mk4 wheel.
Not sure if there is a way of converting slip rings?
would not advise messing around with airbags to be honest.
Jochen.

Yes you can do it, the spline is a direct fit but it ivnolves modifying the clock spring for the indicator cancelor and abit of re-wiring too.. Just sold mine actually after deciding to get a momo team 280mm, got good money for it tho  :grin:

Also my bros friend now has fitted one fully functioning on his highline..

Here's a pic of mine fitted

Bummer dude, venom motorsport FTW  :smiley:


Caouzhou, the horn is easy, just spades on to the original spade connection.
