Nice fitting guide there, but I think they are a little too large for me. I think I would probably go with the original alloy look ones and only genuine VAG parts for me I'm afraid. Would be interesting to get price for genuine parts for sure Marcin. Cheers.

I was thinking more like the extended paddles on this S7 wheel...



Slightly bigger but still subtle and OEM.

Sooooo.....Audi UK price, £158 inc. Vat EACH, so £318 for a pair, but it clearly says 3 spoke steering wheel.
I have a 4 spoke one, but I don't believe there is a difference.

I also emailed my guy in Germany and to give me a price for 3x sets of them.

I agree with Lee, OEM only parts for me.

The S7 ones looks lovely and I would prefer them I think.

But any thing chrome and OEM is good.
The OEM ones also keeps the + and - being illuminated. which I like.

I agree, OEM all the way as I said before, but I thought I will post the direct replacement as well which looks not so bad, no weird shape, not too big, but not on cars like ours

I would prefer carbon OEMs to match my interior
