    today i was busy installing my audi S5 2012 steering wheel.
    .
    the steering wheel is much thicker then the thin steering wheel we now all have.
    .
    i took out the steering wheel buttons from my own steering wheel and put them in the S5 steer because my own steer had much more buttons.
    .
    only need airbag and i am finisht.

    I had the same idea and did some research. I found this thread on motor-talk: A1, A8, A7 Mufu Lenkrad im A3? : Audi A3 8P & 8PA

    The important part of this thread is this post:

    If this post is correct and the S5 has the same airbagsystem as the A5, the airbag systems of the A1 and the A5/S5 are incompatible and the airbag won't work in an accident.

    Maybe the guy who postet this list is wrong. I have no idea, but if I am in your place, I won't take the risk, that the airbag won't work.

    MfG Scie

    Hi, nice work.

    How do you manage the second airbag stage?

    What about your old steering wheel? Do you offer this? I am interested in. If it is possible I would have the airbag itselfe.

    regards
