Hey Atlas, is it possible to add the paddle shifters to a std '05 steering wheel?

Nope...Every D3 has its own specific wiring harness fitted for exact specs...

Default Thanks for your fast response...

I think I'm going to have to give this all some serious thought. I wasn't figuring buying a new airbag into the equation. I wonder if installing a new wheel and airbag invalidates the warranty or releases Audi from any liability if they malfunction.

Also, I'm discouraged to reveal that my lease termination fee is $595. And the residual was relatively low, so the lease payment is high. Oh, well, the price you (I) pay for being the first on the block with an '05 SWB way back last June.

Again, thanks for getting on this so quickly.

Default Warranty is a non issue...

But over $2k for a steering wheel...Unless it provides addtional "features" that really get my senses going.
