Guys hello, i want to retrofit mfa buttons on my steering wheel.
I already ordered the used mfa buttons along with the module.
Regarding the cable, Ciclo told me once i need the 5K0971584C, but it is too expensive even used.
I can find cheaper the 1K0971584C (for skoda??!) and 5K0971584D which has an extra cable that ends into a cylinder plug..
Am i good to go with those aswell ?

Please define what "too expensive" means to you, so you can get better answers or solutions.

Ciclo friendo, i found one 5K0971584C at a very good price (OEM) eventually that i will be ordering.ciclo wrote: Thu Oct 22, 2026 7:41 pm Please define what "too expensive" means to you, so you can get better answers or solutions.
But to your question for me too expensive means like 150 euro .
I want to repaint the car bumpers/door/hood etc so imma need more than 500 and i am on a tight spot because i changed the tyres too .
And i want to add the mfa buttons in order to fix my "stuck on bluetooth mode on cluster" by activating the mfa buttons after installing them.
I kinda want to test the waters with it....because it is the only problem left with the car.
After fixing the "intake airloss" by replacing the whole harness , the car feels brand new and i want to re enjoy it after 4 years of torture.
I feel like it is 2013 again when i bought it lol.

Re: Question about airbag wiring cable
You can find that airbag wiring on AliExpress for between 15 and 20 euros.
The D model is a revision of the C model, either one will work for you.
That cylindrical-shaped terminal is essential, that is, the 1K0 model is not compatible.

Re: Question about airbag wiring cable
The best stories are the ones you never sell. This car was my laboratory of hypotheses and breakthroughs... and seeing my work adopted by others in this community is a satisfaction that no amount of money could ever replace.
If you happen to start my 6R thread/topic from the end, perhaps, "just perhaps", one day you will find a reason to read it from the very beginning. Evolution conveyed with great enthusiasm.

Re: Question about airbag wiring cable
Think about it: neuroscience can map every single neuron and electrical spark in the human brain, it’s the ultimate biological wiring diagram... Yet, scientists are still completely clueless about how those tiny electrical zaps transform into an actual subjective experience, like the feeling of falling in love, the appreciation of music, or the sense of "me.
Basically, the brain is the hardware, but nobody knows where the software comes from... and that’s the cosmic joke, we’ve built this massive intellectual wall between the physical and the spiritual, we force ourselves to choose, either we’re just fancy meat-machines or we're purely mystical souls.
As a species, we still haven't found the universal translator to link both worlds, to realize that the brain is just the physical instrument, but the spirit is the one playing the tune.
Let's see if your inner Dracula survives this breakdown without needing a map!
Wiring diagrams are merely orientation maps, nothing more.
The structure of a microchip is like having those same diagrams shrunk down to a microscopic scale.
You just need to find the path that interests you with some basic knowledge.
