Re: Audi Sport 3-spoke wheel

["Jouko Haapanen" <joukoh@vtoy.fi>]

There is wheel as below:

"Audi Sport" 3-Speichen Lederlenkrad
Durchmesser: 350mm
Farbe: Schwarz	
893 064 241 A 041
Nicht geeignet fuer Fahrzeuge mit einem in das Lenkrad integrierten
Rueckhaltesystem (Airbag). 
Anatomisch geformter Krantz mit PUR-Schaum ummantelt.  Mit echtem
Kalbsleder bezogen.  Handvernäht mit durhlaufendem, schweiss- und
säurebeständigem Faden.
Hupenkontakt im Mittelteil integriert.
Lederpralkissen mit emailliertem Emblem "Audi Sport" und Identity Farben.
Achtung!  Auch fuer Fahrzeuge mit procon-ten System!

End of german lesson for today.

the adapters are as follows:

811 064 715 B Audi quattro (Typ 85), Audi 80/90 (Typ 81/ 85 )
811 064 706 B Audi 80/90/Coupe (Typ 89/89Q/B4/P1), Audi 100/200 (Typ 44/C4)

note: Nicht fuer Fahrzeuge mit winkelverstellbarer Lenksäule. (ie. not for
tilt-equipped)

Price for wheel here is FIM 2 055.00, adapter FIM 588.00.  Avaialbility on
this type of item when it becomes past a couple of yoears old becomes
questionable.  They come from Votex, and they seem to be the slowest of all
in delivery of parts.

I would think that the part is available to order in US with the part
numbers, and if not, the part prices here certainly are higher than those
in some of the other EU countries.
