Audi Q3 Cruise Control Retrofit With Carbon Fibre Steering Wheel

audi-q3-quattro-carbon-wheel-cruise-retrofit
Audi Q3 Quattro retrofit combines OEM cruise control, a carbon fibre steering wheel and coordinated black airbag cover trim.

This Audi Q3 cruise control retrofit combined an OEM Audi cruise control kit with a carbon steering wheel on an Audi Q3 Quattro. We also changed the airbag cover, replacing the standard chrome-strip design with a black-strip version to complement the wheel’s carbon fibre finish.

OEM Audi cruise control kit

We retrofitted an OEM Audi cruise control kit to this Q3 Quattro. This was the functional upgrade within a project that also changed the appearance of the steering wheel.

For more information about this type of installation, explore our cruise control retrofit service. The suitable equipment depends on the individual vehicle, rather than the Q3 name alone.

Chrome or black?

The standard airbag cover has a chrome strip. With the carbon steering wheel fitted, we used a replacement cover with a black strip instead. That darker detail complements the carbon fibre finish without the contrasting chrome accent.

If you are considering a steering wheel change, this project highlights a detail worth discussing alongside the wheel itself: the finish of the airbag cover. Here, the wheel and cover changes worked together visually.
