I came across a Facebook post that offered to create and ship custom carbon fiber steering wheels for Audi cars from China. I was curious and ordered one, along with Urus style carbon fiber paddle shifters in the. In this video, you’ll see what I got, how to take off the old steering wheel and paddle shifters, and how to put on the new ones.
The instructions should work for the following vehicles:
2018-23 Audi A3 (with round airbag only)
2017-23 Audi A4/S4 (with round airbag only)
2018-23 Audi A5/S5/A5 Sportback/S5 Sportback/RS5 (with round airbag only)

I appreciate you posting this. I have been discussing the purchase of a custom steering wheel from the vendor, Modified Carshow, for my '20 RS3, but wanted to hear some reviews and testimonials first. From your review the custom wheel you purchased and installed seems to have proper fit and finish, good quality, and looks great. Anything else you'd like to add before I make the decision to buy? Thank you.

@@chuckfraley9511 honestly the experience was great. The only thing they could improve is more consistent check-ins while the steering wheel was in production, but everytime I reached out they responded within a couple hours. Considering our timezones are 12 hours apart, I found that really impressive. Honestly for the price, you can't beat it and I would do it again with ZERO hesitation.

Wow!! That thing is GORGEOUS!!! Definitely helps the interior accentuate that Carbon Fiber, already there. She's coming along just fine. 👍

on the stock wheel (on the bottom portion) there’s the black wire. were you able to swap that over to the new wheel or did your new wheel come with that pre installed? thank you

I believe I moved everything over.

Hello, did you have airbag or other lights when you reconnected the battery?

can I buy the old steering wheel and airbag?

I am keeping them as I may want to put them back if I sell the car in the future. Sorry. If you're interested in buying one of the aftermarket ones I installed in the video, I include links in the description.
