Cruise control (and MFSW) with JCW steering wheel?

I'd like to get the thicker JCW steering wheel but the configuration tool suggests I cannot have it and the MFSW (when I add one the other gets removed). Does the JCW wheel include the MFSW buttons?

Thanks,
Paul

...or surf the marketplace on here. That's where I got mine. Of course it works with the MFSW! The JCW steering wheel is one of the best purchases you can make!

Sorry this wasn't obvious to me, as I said the configuration tool doesn't allow it and no surprise my local dealers have no idea. So to use this with the MFSW I order my car with MSFW and replace the wheel with the JCW that retains the buttons and original air bag?

Thanks.

Just wondering, does the dealer have to install the JCW wheel? How hard or expensive is it to install?

Do a search; there are a few threads about it here on NAM. Just make sure it's for the R56...

As mods go, it is fairly simple. Look here: https://www.northamericanmotoring.co...d.php?t=109892
