Mondeo Steering Wheel

I've managed to acquire a MK3 Mondeo leather steering wheel. Would this fit into my Galaxy or will I have to lookout for a Galaxy specific leather steering wheel?

I'd be inclined to say they won't be compatible and the airbag units/ connectors may also be different, as well as the clocksprings. Bit too big a gamble for my liking, though that's not to say that it won't physically fit.

Thank you, I'll keep an eye out for a Galaxy one then.

I got this one for nothing and was going to have a look at fitting it yesterday. Quite glad I didn't now

ive got both cars havent had the wheel off the galaxy yet but the mondeo wheel has cruise control on the wheel unless its the standard wheel  theres not much between them either

The Mondeo one is just a standard one without controls. They do look similar but having a hunt round google yesterday the fittings look different sadly

As you have now found out, the fitting is very different. Ford use a hex mount where VW (which the Galaxy is) uses a spline mount. Aside from that the airbag isn't compatible either so unfortunately, no go!
