    I was switching wheels today and decided to film the wheel removal for anyone wanting to do this. Hopefully this helps a few folks.

    Overall it only takes a few mins start to finish

    What wheel did you switch to? And are you selling your other one? If you are, I may be interested. PM me, thanks!

    haven't done it personally but the procedure when taking off the round steering wheel is different, the airbag clips in completely differently.

    Thanks for pointing this out. I have a round one as well and I will take a look at the clips. Maybe I can add the other process as well.

    Thanks for the awesome video - using the camera was a breeze. Timed the whole thing and it took less than 5 minutes.

    I just swapped out my round ugly four-spoked A6 wheel with a round three-spoked S6 wheel and they all basically use some kind of retaining wire clip and pin just like the flat-bottom.
