MPerformance Steering Wheel

Negtvions · 07-17-2016, 02:33 PM

Hey All,

I'm new to the forum. Great resource for info and pics.

Is it possible to order the matte carbon fiber piece for the MSport steering wheel with out having to get the whole alcantara wheel? Any one have pics of this?

I tried doing a few searches on the site for this question but could not find an answer.

Thanks JWW.

just wondering, if there are any install guides on this as well? I am thinking about doing this mod too.

I saw one for sale on eBay the carbon version is the shinny one not the matt color version.

I just pulls off, use a plastic interior removal tool.

Simple.

kevinf · 07-18-2016, 03:58 PM

really? the airbag does not have to be removed? I have seen other install guides where the airbag had to be removed and there are two more screws in there to remove.

No just pop the trim off it's purely cosmetic

kevinf · 07-18-2016, 04:19 PM

you guys are only talking about the silver piece in the middle of the center spoke that extends around the two sides of the airbag/horn?

hmm, if that's the case i will give plastic trim tools a try.

Thanks

The shiny version might be M4 specific then? I noticed that steering wheels / inlay in M4 can be shiny carbon

The M Performance steering wheel in carbon / alcantara for F36 comes with clear / uncoated (or however you would put this) carbon, you see the carbon fiber weave and it's not shiny

Personally, I prefer the clear / uncoated version instead of the shiny version

Picking up the car tomorrow from dealer can't wait to put my hands on the M performance wheel with alcantara.

One thing I'm still wondering about is how to keep the alcantara clean? If you know or you can ask and they know, would love to get feedback on it.

Exciting! You're gonna love it

For now planning to get a pair of BMW gloves and will ask my SA for some tips.

So, the metal insert pops off, but if you orders the OEM Carbon piece it comes inset in the larger trim and its clips are fastened in which don't allow it to be separated without breaking the clips. So the only way to properly install the piece referenced by JWW (thanks for the part number, btw) is to remove the airbag. It's simple enough to do and only took me about twenty minutes.

So with the part number 32302231982 do you guys know if this is gloss or non gloss? Im trying to match my M performance trim.

It's the open pore that matches the m perf trim (dry, non-glossy)
