The pre-facelift 3RB only has audio controls on the spokes (volume up/down and mute on right and mode and track up/down on the right). The controls for cruise are on a separate stalk behind the wheel which while working well once you get used to it is not as nice as the setup on the post facelift Gen 4's

Have seen the results of Shano's wheel & it's damn good :D

Great low cost option if your steering wheel is looking worse for wear.

I'd have to disagree here.
That's exactly what I have, and I think it's perfect. The cruise control is exactly where I can twiddle it without looking. :D

you can for sure (and I do). With a bit of feel you can twiddle the cruise with the buttons on the right spoke without having to move your hand from 3 oclock which for me is better
