**DIY Steering Wheel Removal and clock spring**

There were no issues at all. I drove the car for about a week without the airbag and horn connected (no Clockspring) Installed the new one and buttoned it up back together and all is good!

Thank you so much for the tutorial. I was able to swap out my stock 08 wheel with a new Centennial edition alcantara wrapped wheel, in about 15 mins tonight, Awesome!! Had more trouble with my darn negative battery terminal then the damn wheel lol!

I've got a question. Is it possible to put a late model wheel with bluetooth on an 07? I want an 2012 wheel with bluetooth. I will be getting a Pioneer HU and aftermarket steering wheel interface.

Will I need any additional wiring or harness'? Can I put my paddles on the Z06 wheel?

I have an 07 1LT A6, I bought a new '11 Z06 (MN6) wheel with BT and audio controls (minus the paddles obviously). I already have a Pioneer installed and know I need the wheel control interface (PAC SWI-PS)...

I think that you will have to change your clock spring and your steering column wiring harness in order to get your steering wheel audio controls to work. At least that is what I had to do on my 2LT MN6 '08 coupe. And of course you will need the steering wheel audio controls interface that you mentioned. Don't know what you would need to get the blue tooth controls to work. I have a Kenwood DNX 6960 with bluetooth in my car, but do not have blue tooth controls on the wheel (still have a stock '08 steering wheel).
