Mk8 dsg paddles

Hi, I am not 100% sure but thought I would ask the question before I search for a pair of dsg paddle shifts from the golf mk8 or equivalent.
My van is a t6.1 highline mfsw. 2022
I have looked at both the wheels, the buttons look similar but not sure if it is a simple plug and play like in my previous caddys, or I need to source a different body of steering wheel to accommodate the dsg paddles.
Again not sure if this is viable and will need coding afterwards on this platform.

Any help would be much appreciated

Cheers Dan

I want the same. It looks like you need to find a wheel with paddles and then a set of buttons with sockets to take the paddle plugs. The first is easy, THQ sell wheels but they don't do the buttons. That's more difficult and as far as I have got so far.
 
So have an update, thanks to bucky, he recommended 1 of 2 wheels that I could use on my t6.1.
I went with steering wheel 2gm419089t.
This one supports, multifunction, tiptronic and gen2 ACC. It also as all the correct buttons on both wheels accept additional paddle shifts.
I also needed airbag wiring harness 5g0971584R.
This had the correct spade connectors, for the airbag and horn, however it had an additional brown wire spade connector that I will remove from the splice join when I come to refit it again.
It also as the correct 5 pin plug for the new wheel buttons and yellow harness plug for steering module with correct pin layout.
It is complete plug and play with no coding. Everything works like the old one including the dsg shifters.
Will post pics up on my build once I get it back from the retrimmers.
