Hubba Hubba, wonder how much it would to get one of these into my pre FL car.

Can't find any on fleabay even in Deutschland

I’m sure I have seen somewhere that although they will fit you will not get all the buttons working on a B7.

B8

Oops

Cracking bits of kit and look the dogs doodas but pricey when most cars have one already. A lot of money to buy something that has less than the one I've got.

Would really like one tho'

The thing with the steering wheel, it is your main interface with the car. You are literally always touching it when driving. The pedals you don't really see or feel if you wear shoes, but the steering wheel is how you comminucate with the car. This is something worth spending money on.

The non-flatbottom B8 S4 wheel feels like your stroking megan foxes exposed buttocks when your driving, so spending >£1000 to change it makes no sense other than having the flat bottom.

But like I said above, yes i'd like one but only if it came with the car.

This was my thinking with regards to the seats. I had to have Supersports, because that (and the wheel I suppose) is how you 'feel' the car.

I've been reliably informed that the facelift wheels will lose most funstionality on B7s, and could have airbag conflict issues too (1-stage vs 2-stage). They look stunning though.

My plan is to go for a TT-RS wheel so I retain the functionality while also keeping the chunkier rim of the flat-bottom RS4 wheel.

But should be bang on for the B8's

I tried editing it before - too many tabs open at the same time, made the same mistake as Gizmo.

There shouldn't be any problems for the facelift though, unless the issue with the facelift remaps is an issue with the ECU itself and how it talks to everything.
