06' E55 & Scion Tc
The steering wheel will work on '06 with no modification. My car is at Evosport and they told me that all the button work but they haven't got a chance to try the paddles.

Hope this help!

Hats off to Finny for making this work on his '03 but I know that there was a change in '05 and the circuits were reversed in '05 compared to '03. I know this because Steve @ MBenzNL installed my buttons into an '05 when he was here installing my MP Design steering wheel and they wouldn't work. You had to use '03 buttons in the '03 and '05 in '05.

While it's great there's a workaround it would be even better if it was a direct bolt on using the stock airbag in '05...

none
So anyone think this would fit on an older W202? I mean if the MB shafts are the same(don't know this) then maybe one could simply wire the horn and airbag to work and leave the buttons and brains alone...any idea?

How did you go?

Don't go to a MB tech, go to a Electronics tech. They can do it with their eyes shut...

Good luck!
