Zestek Racing DRX Steering Wheel Control Panel - Volkswagen Golf MK7.5 | GTI | R

The Zestek Racing DRX brings the SCX's OEM button control to a top-mount system built specifically for concave, deep-dish steering wheels. On the Volkswagen Golf, GTI and R (MK7.5), Zestek's own communication chip – an OEM protocol adaptor that installs independently – keeps the supported factory steering wheel functions working with the car's OEM ECU. A VeloLink OBD module with live feedback lighting is built in, and the 2.4G VeloLink wireless network lets you add extra switching without running more cable through the steering column.

Please note: The steering wheel shown in the images is not included – the Zestek Racing Boss Kit for Audi, Porsche and Volkswagen and a steering wheel are required and are sold separately. The DRX is only compatible with cars running their OEM ECU; for standalone ECU race cars, see the Zestek Racing SCX Pro Steering Wheel Control Panel (Standalone ECU Only). Please let us know whether your car is a standard Golf or a GTI/R, as Zestek supplies these as separate versions when ordering. Supported factory functions vary by vehicle, so please let us know which original controls you need to keep before ordering. Zestek states that its products are intended for off-road and motorsport use only; regulations differ between countries, so please check with your local authority.

Fitment

• Volkswagen Golf (MK7.5)
• Volkswagen Golf GTI (MK7.5)
• Volkswagen Golf R (MK7.5)
• Not suitable for: pre-facelift Volkswagen Golf MK7 – see the Zestek Racing DRX Steering Wheel Control Panel for the MK7
• Not suitable for: cars running a standalone ECU – see the Zestek Racing SCX Pro Steering Wheel Control Panel (Standalone ECU Only)

The DRX replaces the factory steering wheel, so we strongly recommend professional fitting – incorrect installation may void the warranty. Please check your chosen steering wheel suits the DRX before ordering, and get in touch if you are unsure. The Zestek VeloSwitch adds eight wireless relay channels for auxiliary functions, while the Zestek VeloBCM and VeloLCM Control Module Bundle adds body, lighting and wiper control. For a full dry carbon faceplate and a separate motorsport CAN connection, see the Zestek Racing SCX Pro OEM Steering Wheel Control Panel for this car.
