Hi all,
Want to get a flat bottomed steering wheel (the title of this thread probably gave that away!) so have been in touch with Royal Steering Wheels about my options.
My existing wheel is this:
They have said on an exchange basis for £200 they can supply me this:
I'm not sure why but the flat bottom doesn't seem to have the visual impact I want and I guess that is because of the rectangular airbag the wheel still looks round in my eyes with only a slight flattening at the bottom. To me it looks aftermarket rather than OEM, anyone else?
What I really like is this:
Just looks OEM and right for the job. Downside is it’ll mean switching to the round airbag wheel, suspect that’ll be mega expensive, need to be paired to the car(?), if it is even possible?
I have asked Royal Steering Wheels about the swap to the S3 style wheel with the round airbag if I drive over to them, will see what they say but suspect the answer is a no.
Anyone think i'm mad for not taking the £200 option?
