Default Adding paddles to the S6

Anyone here added the RS6 Paddles to their S6? It looks like the steering wheels and airbags are the same. What all is involved?

Default different airbag, not a perfect fit but it works. and as far as the....

rs6 plus suspension idea, go with some h&r coilovers and just experiment with the ride height.

Default There is already an S6 steering wheel with paddles available from Audi.

They changed from buttons to paddles near the end of the run.

Default I'm a little confused. Do you have the S6 wheel with tip buttons? If so,

you should only need to get an S6 replacement wheel with paddles built in and no buttons. I havent seen anyone who has both buttons and paddles. Either way, you should not need the self cancelling ring if you have tip buttons already. I have also not heard of being able to just add paddles alone.. But I could be wrong. Anyone else?
