the button pods just unscrew from behind the wheel, if you get some new buttons you can do a straight swap. Bayford Spares have a set of the buttons on Ebay now.

This is a tutorial on changing the steering wheel, showing the buttons. It may be of some help to you. All the best with it. GK

Its very easy. Exactly as b2tf described. Hardest part would probably be getting the airbag off, which requires a special Torx bit.

so get some switches from an EF/EL,
then fit them up the same as the old ones EF - AU steering wheels interchange EF - AU airbags interchange EF/EL have cruise on/cruise off on the left pod, then res/+/- on the right pod where AU switches have radio seek/vol +/- on the left pod and cruise res/+/- on the right pod |

The think is the AU has slightly different switches ... andf the Cruise On/Off is actually on the indicator stalk as well. ... so getting the buttons to work from the E-series might be a tad diffcult.

so if he just grabs another ef/l switch set and replaces his current ones with them, it'd work fine |
