- In this video, I remove my airbag and my oem steering wheel and installed a custom carbon fiber, alcantara, paddle shifter, drive select, push button start, flat bottom racing steering wheel from DMP Car Design on my 2015 Audi A4 S-Line (B8.5). I also have a step by step on how to wire up the push button start on the new steering wheel to the existing oem push button start in the center console. #Audi #DMPCardesign #audia4mods

Thanks for this review man. This is so nice and detailed! I am looking to put this on an Audi Q3 2018.
This video was awesome and informative.
That is so dope !!!
🔥🔥🔥
Very perfect
Can u tell how to take the wires out from the connector? Do i need some tool ?
Thank you
nice
Thanks
Is that a dsg transmission? Or multitronic… does the a4 b8 comes with a dsg or you have to put it on your own thanks!!!!
steering is sooo sickkkkkk
Was sick, still sick, and will always be sick! 😎🤙🏼
Great vid. What did you par for the wheel?
Nothing. I’m sponsored by DMP.
Go to the link in the video description or contact DMP to see the price.
hi. thanks for the sharing very important stuff.. could you also let me have little bit help for the drive select button as well ?? for the wiring , which cable line has to be connected to ??
Don’t know cause I don’t have that feature and my button is useless. You need to contact DMP if you bought the steering wheel from them and want to wire up the drive select button.
Awesome video - how has the alcantara held up so far? I've read that it wears pretty quickly and doesn't look great after a while.
Nope. It’s been awesome. Just don’t be driving with greasy, sweaty, dirty hands. And there’s alcantara cleaners out there to “refresh” the look after a lot of usage.
Sounds good @@TheFlexxGarage - I wear driving gloves during spirited driving so I should be good. I'll get a brush and cleaner too
Damn. I need to start doing that too.
so question for you, because i LOVE the wheel. I have a 2014 audi a4 quattro, and my stock steering wheel is a little different. instead of a circle around the audi logo in the center, mines more of an oval kind of shape. could i still install this new wheel onto that? or would my cords and stuff be different? sorry, new to cars! thanks let me know!
it’s a b8.5 just like yours too
Hey brotha, so I have a 2011 S5 and been wanting to upgrade to a similar steering wheel, so my car has all the options besides the push start, it’s the “plug in key push to start style” would that still work in similar method for the push start activation? Cheers thanks for the great video
Mine has that style “push in key” and start button in the center. But if you only have the “push in key”…I don’t know. You will need to contact DMP and ask them if it’s possible. If so, they can tell you exactly the install.
Do the buttons on the left side of the steering wheel let you change to the previous/next song? If i remember correctly the stock steering wheel doesn't have that so idk if that would work. Great vid like always!
Probably but I’m not 100% sure what it can piggy back onto.
Can probably tap to a button that turns on and off. Like the traction control, or maybe subwoofer, or some lights (like underglows or something). Not sure about using it for radio features.
Yo really cool bro. Fuck that select button. Only that start button there is so sick bro. 🤙
Agreed!
Yo flexx , I got question bro.
I have a 2011 Audi a4 b8 avant s line!
Do you know if your rear diffuser or Audi a4 b8 s line rear diffuser fits on Audi a4 b8 avant?
Did you reuse the steering wheel bolt or are they one time use ?
I always reused mine if they are in good condition, I use loctite, and torque them down to spec. Manufacturers always “recommend” to get a new one every-time you take off your steering wheel but I’ve taken my steering wheel off on all 3 of my cars many many times and they’ve been 100% fine with the oem bolt.
That’s your call based on what you have if you are doing a steering wheel removal. I can’t recommend one or the other.
Interested in same wheel, but my 2011 S4 b8 airbag is different size. Does the package include an airbag? Is a retrofit module included if needed?
As seen in the video, it’s included.
hi brilliant video love the mod quick question were did you get the receiver from ?
It came with the steering wheel from DMP car design.
@@TheFlexxGarage also just to clarify is there two receivers one inside the steering wheel hooked up to the start button and the second you hookup to the centre console start to send signal? or does the wheel have already a pre installed receiver and dmp cars sends you 1 to communicate with the steering ? thank you for your quick reply pal keep up the brilliant work
Please watch the video again. If you didn't see me install a receiver in the steering wheel, then it's probably built in. I don't hide any steps in my videos. If you have questions, just contact DMP. It's their product and they can tell you every little thing about it better than I can.
@@TheFlexxGarage sorry pal i was just being curious before i attempt this i thought id ask incase you missed showing a part in the video i apologies if i sounded like i was accusing you of hiding anything wich wasnt my intention thank you for your quick reply appriciate the help and keep up the videos 💪💪
Haha. I’m not mad. Why you apologizing? I was just telling you that’s everything shown in my videos is what’s included. I’m here to help but 99% of everything you see in my videos…is the install. I always do my best to show everything so people are 100% clear with the product and install. Just keep that in mind. If there stuff required for the install, it will be mention or shown in the video.
I’d hate for you to watch a video, question things, and I don’t have time to get back to your question. That’s why I try to make my videos as detailed as possible so there are no questions needed.
Hey, quick question, i have a 2010 A4 B8 would this fit in my car?
You need to ask DMP
We have a “mode” button on the old steering wheel that changes between modes on the dash, what buttons on the new wheel replace that?
I don’t remember but the new one did everything the old one did. But now i also have paddle shifters and a push start button.
you don’t have to disconnect the battery with push start? just pull the fuse?
I always trying to disconnect the battery since it’s guaranteed there’s no power flowing. But this time I just fused the airbag fuse.
Where can I purchase the start stop wiring kit
You can’t. It’s part of the kit. You can try and ask DMP to see if they’ll sell it seperately. 🤷🏻♂️
Do you still have the stock steering wheel. I would love to purchase it
Not for sale. Sorry.
@@TheFlexxGarageall good man. I love the video btw helping me find good parts 😊
@@TheFlexxGaragedid the steering wheel come with the airbag aswell?
Yes
did the skip button work on the steering wheel? i have the same one without a skip button right now, if i know the skip button works i’ll go buy that steering wheel right now😂
yes works!
Does DMP car design use real materials for their upgrades? (Carbon fiber, etc)
Of course they do. They work with a supplier who manufactures custom steering wheels for other well known resellers. DMP is unique that they provide support on the install and they offer warranty.
@@TheFlexxGarage thanks for the reply! I will be shopping with DMP in the future
linq BUTTON START
As clearly mentioned in the video, it’s part of the steering wheel.
i want this exact same wheel!!!! how?!
i tried to order from so many places but they sell without airbag
That’s why DMP is the best. They figure out how to ship out full steering wheels with airbags.
Just reach out to them if you’re interested. They can make almost any custom configuration for a steering wheel. They made me a custom steering wheel for my Mercedes, my A4 (as seen in the video), and they are making one for my Audi R8.
@@TheFlexxGarage bro your the best! thanks!!
How do I go about getting this exact wheel?
Don’t go through the website. Instead, just message DMP and tell you them want the exact wheel in my video. Send a screenshot from the video if you want. Or send them the video link and they’ll watch the video and see exactly what’s in it.
Their contact info is in the video description. Since you are not going through the website, make sure you ask them to apply the Flexx discount to your order.
Thank you so so much!
I have drive select on my console. Would that button pick that up or would it need that signal like your push start?
I honestly don’t know. DMP can easily answer that for you.
But you can activate audi drive select with VCDS...
No you can’t. If your car doesn’t have it, it can’t be activated.
Just like if your car came with halogen headlights, doesn’t mean you can activate projector headlight features just because it shows up in Vcds.
@@TheFlexxGarage But it is actually possible. I have done it too. It works for the motor in every case, but for the steering it only works with the servotronic.
ona A4? lmao
An A4 that’s heavily modded. You don’t see me saying anything about the carbon steering wheel on your Corolla.
SAVAGE!! 🤣🤣@@TheFlexxGarage
