JCW steering wheel: diferent part for r53 and r56?
Do both models use the same part or are they different? I'm seeing different prices, unfortunately (for me) the r53 is cheaper.

Thanks.

Bump, any ideas? I can't find the part numbers on sites like realoem, so I'm coming up blank.

Thanks.

Yes, they are different. The airbag mounts differently, the MFSW control wiring is different and the spoke covers/controls are different between the two. From first glance the 2 wheels look the same.

Bummer but thanks for the info. Dissapointing that the r53 wheel is so much cheaper.
