Techart Steering Wheel and Ruff Pedals

The mods continue!

Dropped by Lucent on Saturday morning and picked up my Ruff look pedals by Carnewal. Tom was kind enough to put them on for me and as luck would have it Arling just happen to have a Techart Steering Wheel for a red car in stock. What can I say, once I saw this wheel I fell in love! Wow, what a difference from stock! Below are some pics for your viewing pleasure! The interior is really starting to look good. More to come over the next few months!!

yep, the wheel is much thicker than stock. The actual wheel diameter is same as stock but the grip is "much" thicker. As far as the airbag is concerned, yes it is the stock airbag that we moved from my original porsche oem steering wheel. I ordered the leather airbag with stitching to match the Techart Wheel better. I'll post pics with the new airbag when it comes in.

looks really nice

did you have to move the AC controls and CD to put the NAV system in? Do you before and after pictures for the install?

Thanks for the positive feedback guys!

CF shifter and E-Brake are on their way.

Porsche OEM Short Shifter on its way.

Guard's Red center console is on it's way.

New mats with red highlights on thier way.

and yes, the radio head unit and A/C controls were moved to allow for the NAV install. I do not have before pics to show. I'll make an effort to take before and after pics in the future.

Did you get your new airbag yet? I was just curious to see how it would look. Are you getting red stitching on the airbag or just normal stitching.
