    Sports steering retrofit possible?

    Its not in the Tequipment catalog but has anyone done it? I understand the airbag cover is different shape. Ive heard different responses from different salesmen.

    I've not done it, but brace yourself for the price - judging by other tequipment prices it may well cost 3 x more than factory fit!

    You can keep you airbag and add a TechArt steering wheel. They make two versions to accomedate the two different style airbags available.

    That makes sense, because if you spec it up front you are only paying for the difference between two versions. If you retrofit, you are buying the complete wheel.
