Did I show you this mod??
« on: December 23, 2009, 02:48:37 pm »
Passat R36 steering wheel.

I wanted one for ages and then an estate got arse ended and donated one. IMO better than the GTI wheel as (I'm alone here I'm sure) I don't like the narowing of the 'quarter to three' position.

This is thicker and feels more like an Audi wheel. Fits straight on and all buttons work fine. Might alcantera trim it.

It's a nice wheel but I think I prefer the GTi wheel with its flat bottom as Greenouse says.

Can the badge be changed?

Yep, flat bottomed look is better, but the feel is sooo much nicer in your hands (IMO of course)

Haven't got around to splitting the badge yet, but yes, it can be done easily.
