F80 m3 steering wheel 👀

Has anyone put one in a f30 yet? As long as you have the right airbag should it be pretty much plug and play like the other steering wheels? Thanks in advance

Nice upgrade since it's one of the few (the only) places where you touch the car.

That looks really good. How much did that cost, you had to get a new airbag as well correct?

Any idea if this would work with the f25 x3? I dislike that steering wheel and one of the reason I am holding back on ordering that vehicle (I drive 100 miles a day steering wheel feel is very important)

Thanks. I bough the steering wheel here for $400 w/o the air bag. After digging around found a supplier that ship the air bag (shipping to PR is a nightmare due the explosive material), paid for it $800. Installation is almost plug and play, took the car to a tuner and they do it in 30 minutes (hard part was taking the original) and cost just $40.

I think it can fit your X3, since is the one that has been used in almost all the series. But I recommend digging more.

I think that may be an m-sport wheel, the m3 wheel looks almost exactly the same, but the bottom spoke is actually split into two bars, while the msport is solid with the silver trim going down the middle

Yeah that's an M sport wheel. The differences are the Paddle shifters, iconic stitching, empty space in the aluminum center, and a chrome surrounded M badge.
