Just finished installing m-sport wheel! Heating works, everything works!

Driving it feels like a whole different car

looks great! Where did you get it? Does it have paddle shifters?

Got it off of a F30 335i from local seller. The wheel does not have paddle shifters, but my X3 did not have them originally and I didn't care much about them. I was thinking of retrofitting the F80 paddle shifters, but realized the cost is not worth it. My wife who usually drives the X3 didn't even know such thing existed and after 20 mins of explaining to her that you can shift an automatic car, she gave me the look, so I gave up

Haha I can relate to that.

What coding and extra hardware was needed? new Steering column plastic piece and heated steering wheel button for sure?

I love that wheel. My wife's '16 has the older one and mine has this one.

Looks really good!

Jealous of the heating!

Looks nice, how do you turn the heating on?
