Will be interesting to see how you do this, do you make a hole in the centre or do you plan to have a sticker on it?

Cheers

Hey Alex!

You can mill the center out using a dremmel... Then put a logo in... You can find these on ebay... Do you also want one?

Hi mate,

I would defo look into it,mount would need a backplate for the start button and sport selector to go on, could probably cut it out of upvc window board.
PM me the price please if you would?

Cheers

I have a complete 430 steeringwheel if you are interested mate... Took me soooooow many hours to make!




As you can see it is a 1:1 copy of oem! Horn buttons in the rim like the original and all!

















As you can see all dimensions are correct..

Cheers

No it is an audi spline... I was goint to use it on my build but when. I was finished i came across a low priced oem wheel!! So now i have 2! So i am not mass producing them.. Takes waaayyyyy to much hours! Haha

The spline must be altered to a pug..

Hi Dave,
I bought Dmans wheel, but don’t plan to use it as never got round to sourcing how to adjust splines.
