Asterisk button on FB steering wheel, coming from a heated steering wheel.

Buttons work. But I was lazy and did not do this one myself — I paid the folks at TAG to handle it.

My understanding from others that have done it is that the wiring is not simple, but it is diy-able. In terms of getting the controls physically attached to the wheel, I believe the wheel has to be modified slightly to get them to fit flush.

That’s an R8+ wheel correct? They were able to get all those buttons to work on an S7? That’s impressive since it has to go through the clock spring. What does the turn knob under the drive select button do on your vehicle since that was only an option on the R8+. I haven’t looked into this but I guess maybe the euro spec RS7 had this which may make it easier to accomplish.

r8 controls mounted onto a regular s7 wheel. TAG was doing some alcantera work for me and they mentioned they could do this as a c7/7.5 guinea pig -- I am very happy they raised it as a potential option as I really like it. The little button on the bottom left below drive select turns ESC on/off. The bottom right is exhaust valves -- which I don't have hooked up because I've got AWE touring so no valves to turn on/off.

Something I've always wondered, is it possible to change my heated steering wheel button to skip tracks? I'd MUCH rather be able to skip tracks than use the heated wheel.

Is this not a MMI option if you have a heated wheel? Like someone mentioned in a prior post, I have my "*" button programmed to change tracks, but was not something I did using vcds. It was one of the 4 pre-programmed options within the MMI.

Good to hear it wasn't in VCD at least. I've been through the MMI settings several times and haven't come across a setting. Very well may be in the middle menu though, that's one thing I didn't turn on it VCD.
