NornIron Posted May 5, 2013 Report Share Posted May 5, 2013 OK, I've picked up a straight but scruffy E SDI for rejuvenation, which will eventually become the first car for my daughter. The E SDI was chosen for its' £30 a year road tax, eleventy billion miles-to-the-gallon economy and total lack of luxuries (also known as potential problems).I like to keep things OEM+, so I do have a couple of questions to which I hope you guys can provide clear answers!Firstly, I do like the feel of leather on my palms and I read somewhere that MkIV Golf steering wheels fit the Lupo splines... is this correct and are there any other VW range wheels which are a straight replacement?Secondly, I know the GTi came fitted with rear speakers behind the side trims... and I also have a Gamma headunit and CD spare in my garage. Is there an additional loom needed to connect the rear speakers... I know nothing about audio electrics!For your trouble have a pic of my other mini-Dub:Cheers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JoeA Posted May 5, 2013 Report Share Posted May 5, 2013 For the speakers, i just ran cables down the sill trims, up the rear panels and to the speaker grilles Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Silver! Posted May 5, 2013 Report Share Posted May 5, 2013 As the "manboy" says above, but note the GTI has speaker mesh in the rear cards.Not sure about the steering wheel, but I'm sure someone will be along. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skezza Posted May 5, 2013 Report Share Posted May 5, 2013 (edited) The speaker wiring isn't already there to begin with. Not on a pov spec anyway. I think it might be on any S, perhaps? Maybe? **** knows, I'm sure someone said it was lol.No idea about the Golf steering wheel, but someone told me that a VW MF steering wheel fits Now that would be sweet!! Good choice on the SDI by the way. You'll be impressed with the fuel economy I assure you. Even when you thrash it, it's quite hard to get lower than sort of 60 MPG lol.
