Default RS6 wheel conversion, does this wheel work on my S6?- Clockspring issue?
<center><img src="http://printscharming.smugmug.com/gallery/7158128_Fa4zi#459540574_cMg5E"></center><p>Continuing S6 upgrades, StopTech, Hsport, PES SC (ordered), Carbon fiber, RS4 rims, now the RS6 wheel.

Please look at photos of this wheel...I have never converted a wheel, and the clockspring may be the issue.

Does this wheel have one? (I doubt it).

Can one a clockspring be purchased/retrofitted?

Can the Clockspring from my S6 wheel be used?

Are airbags compatible (search tells me yes).

Part is coming from Europe so want to make sure it works, or the cost to make it work is reasonable. Thanks

Default I know this wheel will work in your car with your existing clockspring...
...had the exact same one in my 2.7T when I did the paddle-shift conversion.<ul><li><a href="http://cgi.ebay.de/Audi-TT-Lenkrad-3-2-Liter-Tiptronic_W0QQitemZ220347279588QQihZ012QQcategoryZ 53942QQssPageNameZWDVWQQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem">TT tiptronic wheel on eBay Germany</a></li></ul>

Default I have that exact same wheel in my S6, it's plug and play
I re-used my S6 airbag and clockspring with no issues at all.
