    retrofit steering wheel controls, not so plug and play???

    Casing seems to be the same so between your existing switches and new ones you should be able to make it work. Don't know about fitting something on the switches but as long as contact is made it will send the signal.

    retrofit steering wheel controls, not so plug and play???

    It could work if the resistance values are the same. You could try and swap the electronic board that works to the discovery casing.

    retrofit steering wheel controls, not so plug and play???

    Don't know from what vehicle switches came from, bought it on-line from a breaker along with center console, suppose pre- facelift Td4, since it's the most common in Portugal.

    retrofit steering wheel controls, not so plug and play???

    The sun is shining in the Algarve só I took the steering wheel facia of and this is what the clock spring connection looks like Yellow plug is for Airbag Only 2 wires in positions 4&6, just like original conector only for the horn. So I'm missing something to connect steering wheel controls...
