Description and main features
This carbon fiber steering wheel for the Golf 7 and Golf 7.5 turns your driving position into that of a race car, whether you have a GTI, an R or a daily-use Golf TDI. The integrated display and LED shift lights alert you to the optimal rev range for upshifting with a green to yellow and red gradient, just like on competition steering wheels. It is an aftermarket accessory; DRX Parts is not affiliated with Volkswagen and the brand is mentioned solely to indicate compatibility.
