2006 Park Lane Multifunctional Steering Wheel add-on

I want to buy a 2006 Cooper S Park Lane but the steering wheel is the base 2-spoke. Can I replace the Steering Wheel for a Multifunctional 3-spoke and get access to cruise control, media buttons?

All 2005+ MINIs in the USA had the three spoke. You might be overseas where they had the 2 spoke go into later years.

I have had two 2006 Park lane's, one three spoke mfsw and one with two spoke mfsw. You can seap these with no problem.

However! You cannot swap a non mfsw for a mfsw and expect the cruisecontrol and audio buttons to work. The loom does not come prepared so you need a mfsw ring and after that code it to get cruisecontrol.
