Hi All!

Can anyone link me to a thread or tell me the parts (and part numbers) required to retrofit the 2022 onwards steering wheel into a 2017 Superb? Have access to a skilled coder with ODIS etc.

I had a search but can’t find the right details. I’ve seen a few facebook ads for the upgrade so assume it must be possible but need some help.

Thanks!

Will the airbag fit?

Yeah, the airbag is specific to the wheel, so assuming that can all be sourced, it looks like I just need to get this Canbus adaptor to enable the right hand side buttons.

Hopefully they’re willing post it to Australia!

Ok, I’ve used google to search the forum more comprehensively (yes, I’m incompetent) and compiled the list of parts. I’ve also confirmed Cars Equipment were happy to post the module overseas for me.

I will update this thread again after install.

Parts required:

Wheel:

5E3419093AM VKJ (other parts also apply for the wheel)

Airbag:

5E3880201D IZY (wheel dependent, yet to confirm this via test)

Clockspring:

5Q0953569C (based on search, tbc at fitting)

Kufatec Heated steering wheel retrofit loom:

43696-1 (for cars without heated steering wheel)

LIN bus adapter options:

How much is that lot?

Not sure on it all yet but I’ve found the wheel and airbag used for about €100 combined. The LIN bus looks like the most expensive at €200. Kufatec loom €50. Clock spring will find used, maybe €50-70.

Hmmm... £350 for a new wheel...

Yeah, if you pay full fat for the module it ain’t cheap but there is a DIY solution out there on drive.ru. I just don’t have the time and am impatient.

If anyone knows for sure what you need it’ll be @ApertureS

Ok, test fitted the wheel with module and everything works except the heating button (as I haven’t wired or coded it yet) and the ACC button as that requires coding to work too. This is using the cars equipment full function LIN module.

Very happy with the progress so far!

Apologies for the chicken legs in the photos, promise I’m wearing shorts!

Does the heated steering wheel work via the climate control menu on the screen?

It will eventually. I have to install the Kufatec wiring loom, clock spring and do all the coding to make that work. Hopefully by next weekend.

Once done the MIB holds a bunch of settings for it under Air Conditioning.

Actually, the last LIN adapter from the list above almost twice cheaper

Yeah, I only discovered that after I’d already ordered the adapter 🥲

Good job, looks awesome!
Can I have your old one? lol

Ok. Mission accomplished!

Using the Kufatec loom (LHD) on a RHD Superb with some wiring extensions, the Cars Equipment LIN adapter (full version), and a 569 C clockspring, it all came together.

The magic sauce was using a fuse wire tap in an unused Terminal 30 location. For me that was SC24 where the sunroof fuse goes (I don’t have a sunroof).

The good thing about this is you don’t need to get behind the fuse panel, literally just need to find an empty slot with a positive terminal 30 socket wired, plug fuses into the tap and crimp in your positive wire from the heated steering wheel loom in.

Lesson learned along the way was that not all 5Q0 953 569 C clocksprings will work. You need one with a SW version equal to or later than yours or the adaptation coding in 08 HVAC won’t work.
