T6.1 MFSW fitted to a T6 ?

Hey there :) I've just joined the Forum and I am new to VW as I've switched from a A35 Mercedes to a T6 Van. This is my first post so excuse me if this has already been covered.

- I have a T6 2019 Model Startline Van with a plastic steering wheel. I don't have SAT Nav etc.. but my phone connects via bluetooth.

The left stalk has no Cruise Control and the Right stalk does have Trip

I have a 2022 T6.1 Steering wheel which is the image below - I don't know what model variant it comes from but it does have these buttons as you can see which I don't know what the functions are.

Originally I bought this to only have a soft leather grip and possibly control my OEM headunit volume etc. But before I start stripping off the plastic wheel, can you advise me on:

what functions I can actually get working on this replacement wheel?
what wiring loom would I need? and where can I get that?

If anyone on here has fitted this wheel style of wheel and can provide info on connections then that would really help me.

Thank you

Thanks

Welcome!
I would say - none - unfortunately. Electronics in T6 and T6.1 are very different (different generations) so in general parts are not interchangeable between T6 and T6.1.
More details about T6 MFSW retrofit:
 
I just got the same steering wheel but also with DSG paddles and touch controller (from 2023 POLO). My existing airbag fits if I remove the touch sensor controller.
I've read countless threads on retrofitting cruise control to a T6 and Polo MSFW was suggested, but I guess most of the work on this was done in 2020 before the MQB made its' way to Polo...
Anyway, I assume my two options are:
- Get compatible MFSW buttons with cruise control and DSG paddles connectors (I have DSG so would like these to work). Any idea on the correct part number?
- Get the MQB-PQ converter, I only found one from Greece Pardon our interruption..., is there a UK source for these? I'm happy to solder and modify, I have lots of soldering experience.

These are made by Evangelis and his brother.
I highly recommend their products.
Developed to the highest standards including full VCDS tweaking.

Is it the same struggle on an t6 manufactured 2015/10 with cruise control and manual gearbox (no paddles) to fit the t6.1 steering wheel?

Where can you get that adapter? It still needs coding with it?
