Your 6R is amazing, thank you so much for posting the guides too! Could you please give me a hand?
...
Thank you very much man, and keep the good work!
Have you thought about installing the multifunction steering wheel? In that case the three wires would not be necessary.
If you do not plan to install multifunction steering wheel, buy the three wires (000 979 009 E - 60 cm - yellow color) at the VW dealer or wherever you prefer with the color you prefer.
The only thing to keep in mind is the assignment of pins / slots between connectors +VCDS

Felices Fiestas y próspero Año Nuevo.
But your comment in bold got me thinking and now I'm confused.... Why it wouldn't need wiring? My wheel doesn't have any buttons.
I though all new buttons need wiring as shown here: viewtopic.php?t=54171
So theres two things now: (three )
1. The steering wheel with only controls on the left needs wiring? The three wires? If stalk on right side with onboard computer buttons. YES
2. The steering wheel with controls on both sides need wiring? The three wires? NO, it needs a wire (LIN) to BCM.
3. All VW wheels are compatible right? (with their airbag ofc) With right functions. YES.
Thank you so much man, you're awesome!
PD: The wiring diagram is from ELSAWIN right?YES.
COOL! (thanks for sharing)
The three wires you installed to operate the onboard computer are needed when the buttons are located on the right stalk, when they are located on the steering wheel right side the communication with the instrument cluster is through the BCM.
Buttons ---> MFSW control unit ---> LIN ---> BCM/Gateway ---> CAN lines ---> Instrument cluster.
The MFSW compatibility also depends on the date of BCM manufacture. New models need a 2015 BCM. The old models always are compatible, but read here about wiper stalk.
The tutorial/guide/DIY made by Der Finne (for MFSW) is perfect... it's perfect so I (me) do not have to do it , however the power supply (+15) is best (and OEM way) to take it from the fuse box. SB10 fuse.
... and the LIN wire is easier spliced to T28/16 door connector, not in the BCM connector.
