Is A $330 Ali Express Audi S3 Steering Wheel Any Good? (Paddle Shifters)

In today's video we install a Audi S flat bottom wheel with r8 style paddle shifters! Would Definitely recommend this as a first interior mod! The paddle shifters were plug in play with car and required no wiring. Super easy install just a little tedious with the clips!

Man.. considering your age, a “poverty spec” 201+ A3 is a dream.. don’t let the internet or people your age shame you for having a nice car.

[@LawtonDenisDrives]

Haha thank you man! Thanks for watching

[@Gray-dq5hq]

I've been waiting for someone to make a video if these are any good or not because i've heard and seen them. Exactly what I was looking for thank you!!

[@LawtonDenisDrives]

Thanks for watching the video man!!!!

[@zvonimirkljajic4473]

Bruh, 30 year old from Balkans working in IT, I can't even dream of affording that "poverty spec" A3

[@Bikelifeboy-sz5en]

I really appreciate how you came up all by your self and now your big on KZbin

[@themighty222]

If you hit the paddles to go into manual mode, you can get back into D by clicking the shifter into sport, it'll skip sport and go straight back to D, saves you a clunk on the gear selector

[@LawtonDenisDrives]

Ok awesome!! Thank you so much.

[@theitems4242]

@@LawtonDenisDrives you can get back into D from manual by just holding the + shifter for a couple seconds too.

Do you have the link to this wheel?

[@AnonFH]

share the link to the steering wheel please my guy! much love

Yeah, please

This homie will be modding Lambos soon.. watch the space 🔥🔥

[@LawtonDenisDrives]

Thank you bro💪💪 I appreciate it!

[@slayer21]

Really nice well spent money for sure! subscribed waiting for more nice car👌🏻

[@LawtonDenisDrives]

Thank you!!

[@joshuamata7294]

Post the link where you got it

[@df-yg1sd]

idk what year your A3 is but mine is a 2018. been looking into getting paddles as well. Did you have to do any coding at all for this new wheel or was it just straight up plug and play?

[@Jesusavesus16]

Dude your car sounds so nice! I can’t wait to see more upgrades done to it. What would also be cool is if you got fancy rims. 😂 😁😜

[@LawtonDenisDrives]

Once these salty and snow roads clear up… that might be the move👀

[@Jesusavesus16]

Yay 😁! I forgot about the snow haha 😂 I live in SC hasn’t snowed where I live in almost 6yr 😜

[@LawtonDenisDrives]

@@Jesusavesus16Your lucky man!😂

[@PasanJayathilaka]

bro can you share the link please? can we order with the airbags?

[@arguello1990]

Was wondering if this would fit my 2015 A5 Coupe with the 2.0T engine? Or if there's one that would fit, I really want paddles on it...

[@toasterdirt]

dang I have paddle shifters with a flat bottom on mine but no perforated leather, I am seriously considering doing this.

[@LawtonDenisDrives]

It’s a great upgrade for the money!

[@MortalWombat22]

How they can replicate that wheel with working buttons for $300 is kinda impressive.

[@LawtonDenisDrives]

Right?????

[@LawtonDenisDrives]

It feels 100 percent OEM

[@gamer18990]

It looks OEM too, too identical@@LawtonDenisDrives

[@itztilqs8159]

Better than spending $1200 that’s for sure lmfao

[@vladimirtsokalo693]

This is an oem wheel, just with new leather. They buy used stearing wheels for dirt cheap and put new leather on it and sell it as new.

[@varknek]

So did you replace the airbag as well? The link you posted does not fit on my car like you claimed. It’s a 8Y steering wheel and but an 8V. The way you remove your existing airbag looks like mine and is not the same and the steering wheel you installed. 8V is a 5 3/4 “ bag and 8Y is 4 3/4”. How did you did that?

[@qxcte940]

Can you put the link to the wheel I’m interested in getting it I have the same car

[@blake0474]

hey man love this videos!… curious to see how the steering wheel is still holding up!

[@LawtonDenisDrives]

The steering wheel has had zero issues so far. I have a buddy who has had this wheel for over 2 years and it’s still going strong.

[@heyguy35]

Hey will this work on 2018 A3 tech premium fwd? So it’s plug n play, no coding required? I noticed on your old steering wheel you had a NAV buttton like mine but the new one doesn’t have one. Did all the buttons work correctly from the jump? Any issues you came across yet? I’m still skeptical on pulling the cord on one. Any feedback will help a lot. Thanks man!

[@LKay-Shares]

How are the controls on the wheel wired up? I’m trying to do this same swap

[@LeCataNordicu]

drop the aliexpress link bro please! sick car dude, ive got my a6 3x sline and the steering wheel is that brown one, is just not it, after 120k miles its just looks bad, i kinda wanna buy a steering from the same dealear as you, so that i'm sure the quality is the same! Keep up the good work dude, nice quality content.

[@LawtonDenisDrives]

Hey man!!! Thanks for watching the video 💪 Below is the link! Let me know if you end up picking it up! A6 is a sweet car🤙 a.aliexpress.com/_mNqkBbq

[@georgirejev8070]

Can you send me link from (Aliexpress) where you purchase that particular steering wheel? Is it going to fit to A/S5 models or it is only for A/S3?

[@itztilqs8159]

Next up is getting a spoiler and coilovers😈

[@varknek]

Are you EVER going give a link to where you bought the steering wheel as you have now been asked multiple times ?

[@LawtonDenisDrives]

Hey man!!! Thanks for watching the video 💪Here’s the link. Just seeing all this now! a.aliexpress.com/_mNqkBbq Let me know if you end up buying one💪 Do you have a A3 yourself?

[@davidrockwood5219]

It looks good! I'm curious if it's real leather on the wheel. Or is it fake leather?

[@LawtonDenisDrives]

It is real!

[@michaeliannelli113]

Please share a link, i have a 2017 a3 that i want to do the same thing with

[@mariovazquez3874]

Without seeing the video, and taking my own experience with Ali, you have at least a 50% chance the part is good and will work

[@LawtonDenisDrives]

I thought the same thing when I bought it.😭😭 Looks like I got lucky😂

[@varknek]

I see at least 3 requests here and several on the FB group.

[@deluxeluca6100]

How do I connect the paddles to the steering wheel? I don't have a cable for the paddles because they are missing as standard

[@LawtonDenisDrives]

It was just plug in play for me no wiring required. What car do you have?

[@DanielBrownMTB]

looks way to good

[@official_lubadar9429]

What about the buttons cause they are not the same on the new one?

[@LawtonDenisDrives]

Everything works just as oem with the new wheel!

[@S4Tony3.0T]

Wait the stock a3 doesn’t have paddles even the Sline?

[@LawtonDenisDrives]

Depends on the one. Some of the newer a3s do like 2019 and up.

[@S4Tony3.0T]

@@LawtonDenisDrives so yours didn’t have them but the steering wheel has them and that worked on your car somehow ?

[@n.o_w_a.k]

@S4Tony3.0T Features on new cars are plug and play, you pay less you get less, but theres a lot behind the scenes

[@theoisaksson6988]

how much u pay per month? Insurance and car payment?

[@LawtonDenisDrives]

Hey man! I don’t have a car payment I bought it cash and then I pay a like 150 a month in insurance

[@kinhung]

the leather is thinner as I know

[@LawtonDenisDrives]

Feels exactly the same as my friends s3 wheel!
