Multifunction wheel in a Octavia 2 pre-facelift

Featured Replies

Hey guys, I've looked over many, many steering wheel upgrade related threads on this forum, but haven't found anything that sufficiently assured me, that what I want to do is possible, never mind how to do it.

 

I've got a 2006 Skoda Octavia 2, pre-facelift, which has the normal, dumb steering wheel + cruise control module and also an aftermarket Android head unit, which is advertised to work with all Skoda 2's (I can only hope).

I know I could pretty painlessly upgrade to the pre-fl MSFW wheel, just by swapping the control module. But I strongly dislike how it looks, and the FL version isn't much better... I couldn't find much info on any other wheel types, when going from a pre-fl Octavia 2.

 

So, finally, my question is, what other options do I have (I'm willing to replace control units, do custom splices, reprogramming, etc). I really like the look of the flat bottom/three spoke Superb wheels (minus the piano black, but oh well), such as 5E0064241 (pic below), or any other ones they have on that site. I'm even willing to do a paddle delete if necessary.

Well, I sure hope somebody was as crazy as me and decided that investing in a 15+ yo car was worth it so that they could now help me! :D
Thanks! :)

Oh yeah, btw, If I'm staying something absolutely stupid, just let me know, cause researching steering wheels for Skoda is a pain in the ass. Some people mistake Octavia 3 for a 2, some say it's compatible with both Superb and Octavia, which I still don't know how true that is... some part numbers the show up on "Octavia 2 MFSW" are in reality Octavia 3 wheels.. etc.
This person this video shows an, apparently, FL MFSW, but that's not the wheel I'd expect, I would expect the one in the picture below.. like, this is all overwhelmingly convoluted.
