Following on from this is the TT gear surround a straightforward fit, would someone like to tell me how they have done theirs?

I'm trying to obtain one at the moment, its attaches with 8 torx screws which I think will be the same on the A2, just need to drill holes in the tunnel plastics to suit
 
While I am sure Depronman is correct , I had to change the airbag / horn loom when I swapped from the 4 spoke to sport 3 spoke steering wheel. Perhaps something to check, hopefully I was unlucky and needed to get a new loom and you may be OK.

The loom which came with the TT wheel was perfect for the install in the A2. I never tried the A2 loom to the TT Airbag

A change from a four spoke SE A2 wheel to a sports wheel does require a different small loom. They can be bought for around £20 from an Audi dealer parts dept.

The TT wheel will fit without a loom not sure about the A2 Sport, I would of thought that they would be the same? There again....

I didn’t want to say after Deproman’s guide how to fit a wheel (I didn’t make it clear that I was talking about a TT gearstick surround) but I have already fitted a TT wheel without modification on my 2002 Tdi. What I didn’t do was to leave the battery disconnected, thus I ended up with an airbag light on until Timmus cleared it via VCDS.

Yesterday actually, my sons little A2 passed its MOT with one advisory - one worn droplink. We were going to replace the whole front suspension anyway, so that's not a big deal. Not bad for a 2003 1.4i with 123k miles. Many 'other' cars would not be so easy to get through an MOT at that age.

(well actually yesterday) I fitted a 'new to me' TT steering wheel and airbag, it is in mint condition from ebay at £30 delivered.
I thought I preferred the four spoke wheel until I recently drove an A2 with the three spoke wheel, the extra shape around the 9 and 3 o'clock positions fit my hands
perfectly, so it was a 3 spoke sports wheel for me, and I always liked the look of the TT wheel with its chunky aluminium ring. I would like to find the TT gear stick surround to mate with the TT steering wheel - anyone got one kicking around that they are willing to part with. I've got the sports knob so only need the lower ring that the gator fits into
Cheers,
Paul

I spent ages looking for a good TT gear knob , and not so long for a TT Air bag , my car had the sport steering wheel already ...

I have a 2001 1.4L Petrol with 228330miles, just advisory about the plastic interior missing bits.
 
Took my A2 to my garage for the NOX sensor to be replaced and caught them red handed with this ?. At least they offered to replace the cracked sills with new ones. Same happened with my previous A2. I mean, really...

Tut!! It's not like the correct jacking location is that difficult to see when the car's on the ground. I hope you take them up on their offer.
