Multi-Function steering wheel |
|
Can someone tell me what functions the steering wheel buttons control? I have seen a fair few in pictures that have a range of different buttons on and its something nice to have - but I dont know which ones do what when looking at adverts!
thanks!

The radio buttons are 'plug & play', the cruise buttons can be enabled by an Autologic equipped dealer or independent (like me )

Sorry to be a Neanderthal...but does that mean you can add a multi function steering wheel to a standard D3 and enable the functions?

Yes ..buy the switch pack ( either cruise control or audio ..or both ) ..audio works straight away ..cruise control should work ..you just wont get the orange light on the dash ..if not it needs to be enabled .
Some have fitted the cruise control and the orange light works ok .
You dont need to buy the complete steering wheel ( unless its cheaper than the 2 switches )
I have a spare cruise control switch i will be putting up for sale when i get round to it !! G4 Gone ...but not forgotten
