Would an Sti steering wheel fit?

That looks great Dondolo -- Is that the 2015 wheel? P/N:34312VA020VH

 

Why is this not a more popular swap than the damd/provo/ etc wheels at half the price? My stock wheel on my 05 lgt has seen better days (warn/frayed), so looking for a new replacement. I was going to go junk yard picking... but @ 300ish... I could be persuaded to swap in the STI wheel.

 

That is not a 2015 Wheel. They aren't even close. Photo looks like a DAMD wheel for a GD STI.

 

The 2015 STI Wheel:

GD STI DAMD...Says DAMD on bottom:

 

GT Spec also started making a knockoff for the GR that looked a lot like the DAMD, but was made of different (inferior) materials

FWIW, all Subarus have resistive SWCs rather than CAN bus. There's a good chance the 2015 controls could be adapted to fit, but that doesn't fix the potential airbag and cruise control issue. I suspect it would work, but you might have to go through the same process the GD WRX folks did to install the GR WRX steering wheels (Specifically for cruise control). I imagine the airbag charges could be swapped as well.

do the steering wheel controls work with the radio and cruise?

Yes all the controls work.

No it isn't a 2015. It's the DAMD from Avojdm.Com with an 06 sti airbag. It's an awesome mod!
