[s-cars] Preparing for S6 sport wheel swap into S4, have a couple quick questions

[Dave Ellis]

Hi Chris,

Yes, it's possible to do the swap using the S6 parts without the need to 
cut and glue stuff.  I just went through the whole process a couple of 
weeks ago.

The process isn't too bad with the exception of needing to figure out 
how to re-wire the two larger multi-pin sockets behind the wheel.  The 
process is undocumented and I spent *hours* finding the errors and 
filling in the omissions in the Bentley wiring diagrams.  :o)

I'm in the process of doing a write-up, concentrating on the wiring 
changes since Steve Young's write-up already covers most of the 
disassembly steps.  With the wiring changes documented it should be 
reasonably easy to do the swap as long as your car's wiring is the same. 
  I'll see if I can get it finished in the next few days and send you a 
copy.

If you have any questions in the meantime please let me know.

Regards,

Dave
