one of my favorite mods, it really adds to the overall driving experience as well as the look to the interior.

great choice

Do all the TTRS wheels come with white stitching or was that an option?

Good choice in color! Wheel upgrade has been my favorite interior mod along with the CF trim. Having that chunkier/sportier wheel makes the whole driving experience better!

Looks like you got a bulb out warning!

I don't know what makes me more jelly, the steering wheel or the fact you're under 20k miles on the odo right now :(

You should probably add to your "other mods" list your TT-RS steering wheel!
Congrats!

wheel looks fantastic and works really well with the rest of the interior. why does the badging say 's-line' instead of RS or TT-RS though?

The TTS and the TT RS have the same steering wheel. Mine just has the S-Line logo too as it's a TTS wheel. Exactly the same otherwise. The S3 also uses the same wheel with a different badge.

I think I like the TT-RS steering wheel better than the Euro-RS4 wheel.

Looks sharp man!

I believe the TTRS wheel is thicker

Yeah, I'm pretty sure the TT-RS wheel is thicker than the Euro RS4 wheel. Definitely happy with the Euro RS4 wheel though....such a "hands on" upgrade that truly enhances your driving experience!

I was at 19,000 last year when my car was a garage queen (we probably had the 2 lowest mileaged b7 a4's on the forums).... Then I got sick of looking at it in the garage, now I drive it 110 miles per day!!!

Thanks. Via eBay? I've been keeping an eye on an eBay seller who has Audi wheels, but at the moment there's no TT RS wheels available.

How much did you pay?

Are the air bags plug and play? Which Air bag did you guys buy? Or did it come with the wheel? I am currently looking for an airbag but want to make sure I buy the right one to match up with the A4 car and S3 steering wheel.

I bought my bag wires and ready to plug and play from alex at europrice.

I swapped over my s/wheel on the weekend too. I bought it from Europrice and it cost about AU$960 inc freight.
