VERY good price! Others have fitted these before so the info will be out there already. In fact, there was a thread recently about changing steering wheels I'm sure...?

the 225 one has the cupra r badge on the bottom a red centre line at the top and two thumb holes either side of the airbag!!! very similar to the r32 one!!!there are a few r32 ones on flea bay at the mo for £150 without the airbag but brand new!! had my eye on them for a while until this one came up!!!

£40 is very cheap!!!! Well done!! There was a 210 one on ebay with an R badge stuck on it, it’s not that one is it? There is someone on fle bay selling Brand new R32 steering wheels for £150. I got one and its beautiful, feels good!! Fitting. I had to customise a screw driver to get the cap release clips but other than that its easy peeezy lemon squeeezy :drool:

i was more hoping to find one for a similar price you paid for one :D





If that was to me i think there still on there. They had like 35 of them or something stupid. Last time i looked there was 18 left :blink: Best £150 pounds i've ever spent on my car.

That's an excellent price!! I wanted one for my FR as I'd already got hold of the Recaro's & black headlining and interior trim parts from a 210... the steering wheel was a little shiny so wanted the 225 version. I think Seat wanted around £240!! Needless to say I didn't get one... well, I did really - I bought a 225 LCR! :p lol
