Steering wheel thread!
Ok, i couldn't find official one... Please post up your steering wheels. Brand, configuration, and if you don't mind the price.
I, like many others, am in the market for a stering wheel. Most vendor's have very few pics, with very few configurations. This thread will help those members, as well as give you a chance to show off your ride
p.s. would love to see some D-Style with blue stiching, and a bit of alcantra.
Main questions for me: any difference between DSV and APSIS? And which wheeel is better for combined track and DD?

Mine is a DSVETTES D-curve wheel. I purchased it through a group buy here on the forum $550.00.

I do not track anymore however in the Texas summer heat this alcantra is so much more pleasing to grip. Oh it does not slip in your hands like leather, wood, carbon fibre. If I was for looks I would of done leather on the sides and carbon fibre top and bottom. The wheel has been in the car for a year and has held up nicely.

Don’t mean to jack OPs thread but i think this goes in line with this.
I’ve done a little searching, so far no luck.
I have an 05 I want to upgrade to the newer steering wheel, with radio controls. i have an after market ken wood radio and was wondering if there are and kits to add controls to the steering wheel using an adaptor to the after market radio. i know ill need the newer steering wheel, and clock spring. I'm just assuming going to an aftermarket radio i should be able to find an easy way to wire the controls to the radio.

I like it and am glad I did it. It was a real PIA because the new wheel was from a manual and mine is an A6 so i had to cut the holes for the Paddles but I like it. 
I paid $100 shipped for the 2012 and sold my old wheel for $100 +shipping on ebay so it was Great deal for me.
