BMW M Performance Alcantara Steering Wheel
Found this M Performance Steering wheel online tonight for $745 shipped or local area pickup, new in the box with Carbon wheel trim. What do you think, good buy?

Yes good deal, but maybe cheaper to be done at port. Think swapping airbags etc is a hassle. So if you're paying labor might be a wash. That said if you're too late to do at port yes your price plus labor is obvs less than MSRP plus labor so nice find.

I have swapped my steering wheel on my E92 a couple of times, not too hard. Takes about 10-15 minutes. The only tough part is releasing the airbag clips from under/behind the steering wheel. Everything else is fairly easy swap off/on to new wheel. They have the electronic version also for $1396 delivered, but that is tough sell given it's another $650 for some nice lights and info display

Removing airbags from modern cars is not much of a worry anymore. Just remove all power to the system (battery disconnect and ensure power is removed); good to hit the brakes a few times and wait 20 minute to be sure. I'm now second guessing my self on the wheel. Really want to hold out for a flat bottom version.
