hmmm

just ordered up this for my c6 s6 from piro design. I had the 3 spoke no button version in my c5 rs6 which I really liked, but the s6 has a MFSW by default.

fancied a FBSW, so will be interested to see what it looks like in the car (and yes, rs6 badge gets replaced with a S6 one before anyone asks!)

Should have got a TT/R8 one, smaller and look much better:

MFSW = something to steer the car with and something to hold onto when you thinks its game over

Looks sweet :thumbs:
Who did that for you Corbett?
Any wiring diagrams for the multifunction loom?

Ive previously looked into the new 4G wheel into a 4F but some said it wasn't doable.

We're definitely going to need some more info on this.

Looks like a lot of effort to get your steering wheel on the other side as well!!!!! :bash:

Also, is that a Bluetooth control device in the speedo/rev counter cluster?
