S2T Performance Products Company Installation:
After your purchase, if you don't feel comfortable installing the S2T Performance paddles on your factory Audi shifter switches, you may contact us prior to sending your OEM shifter switches to our facility...and we will perform the modification for you.
S2T Performance Products will mail the completed switches back to you (usually within 5 business days).
S2T offers this courtesy for free! The only expense to you is the cost of shipping both ways.
While you are awaiting return delivery, please remember that your vehicle can be driven without the OEM shifter switches installed in your car.
#1. Disable the supplemental inflatable restraint (airbag) system. Disconnect the negative battery cable and pull the airbag fuse (refer to factory repair manual).
#2. Turn steering wheel 90 degrees left/ right. Remove the plastic covers on wheel and loosen the torx bolts securing the factory airbag. When finished, turn the steering wheel upside down. It is not necessary to unplug or remove the air bag.
#3. Using a small flathead screwdriver, remove the left and right steering wheel switch to allow access to the shifter switch.
#4. Using a torx driver, remove the shifter switches.
#5. Using a flat head screw driver, gently pry back the plastic tab at the inner end of the switch while pushing up on the paddle.
