• electric steering wheel position adjustment mechanism,
• construction tailored to the interior architecture of the Audi A8 / S8 D3,
• retention of factory mounting points and adjustment ranges,
• prepared for integration with original steering wheel accessory components.

As a used part, the column offers an attractive service solution for users who wish to restore full steering system functionality while maintaining factory specifications.
