M Performance steering wheel

Galex999 · 08-03-2022, 01:06 PM

Looks like BMW offers two styles of M Performance steering wheel for G20; one with red center indicator & white stitching and another with blue center indicator & tri-color stitching. I'll probably get one with blue center indicator.

Does anyone has installed either of them? Any real world photos?

I know there are many online sellers for these parts but I found this German site to be the cheapest and offers the most selection and product info. Anyone bought from them? Since they're located in Munich, only ~10 miles from the BMW HQ, maybe they got the best local sourcing for OEM BMW parts.

These M Performance steering wheel is not cheap but I think it's worth it since it's the one that physically connects you to the car 100% of the time..

I'm curious how much a shop would charge to perform the swap. Any idea?

If you ask dealer to swap it, they'll at least charge couple hundreds dollars. I've done swapping couple times on my previous BMWs and it's not too difficult. Takes about an hour. There are few DIY videos too.

Once I know ETA for my 2023 330e, I'll order the parts ahead to do the swap as soon as the car arrives.

There are quite a few threads on this very subject. Also, a G80 steering wheel can be installed on a G20 - a few modifications are required but the wheel itself is a direct fit. IND has a good installation video as posted in the previous post.
