just put on Msport steering wheel

Driv3r · 05-20-2006, 09:10 PM

I am almost done(to me at least) with the modding....
i just put on the steering wheel and it should have been my first mod, this thing is amazing, its soo thick and its something that you touch more than just about anything else in the car..money well spent on this one....pic to follow sorry..

I know it's somewhere here but... what did it cost you to swap for the M-sport steering wheel? Did you do the M cover as well?

Thanks.

How hard was the install?
How much was the wheel?
Where did you get it?

ZuerstBMW · 05-20-2006, 10:38 PM

Here is where I got mine.

Then I got the cover from Morristown for 80.00, so overall I got a great deal. I will install in 2 weeks when I get home from Madrid.

If you didnt get the Sports Package, you will have to get a new airbag as well, sorry.

I am took looking for a new airbag, I need one because I do not have the SP

If anyone finds a good deal I would get the M sport wheel in a second

You also need a new airbag mounting bracket which is not sold individually as well as the multifunction buttons which are different on the non ZSP wheel.

It sucks, I know. I would love to have the Msport wheel but it's very expensive if you dont already have a sports wheel as you have to replace absolutly everything.

the install seems hard....but as bavarian told me, just practice removing the airbag and thats the hardest part. was a real good DIY btw.
I got my wheel from HSU...and also, i might need to get the M cover but i dont know if i can rake up 80 bucks for that tiny little emblem...

Whats the cover? Do I need to buy the cover if I have the sports package wheel?

No if you have the Sports Package, you can reuse the same one. Below is a pic of the cover.
