Anyone changed their steering wheel to a flat bottom with or with out leds been thinking about this but wondering if I’d loose the vibration and heat would like to retain the stock features if possible but some of these aftermarket wheels look so nice

I haven't done this myself but I believe Aza has options that can retain OEM features, but you will have to make sure to ask them about it. It costs a bit extra too.

The wheel itself is just hardware and you have to transfer the electronic /wiring / buttons etc... from your existing wheel to it (unless you buy the complete wheel).

The vibration is just the motor (as the same side of AA battery) and you just need to ask if the new wheel has slot to accommodate it (usually most wheel should have it).

Heat function is slightly different and you need to ask if the wheel have this option. Some wheels cannot have it for obviously reason, for example Carbon fiber wheel.
