Just got my self a great deal on a new M3 steering wheel with the colored stitching for only £59 :eek: :cool: Just need the expensive part now the air bag and lower trim.
Really looking forward to getting it fitted :)
Is there a fitting guide/tips to fit the steering wheel into my 1998 E46 saloon
Also anyone know if my car has electronic throttle im hoping it does so i can have cruse control :cool:
Nice mate, ive been wanting to do this mod for an age but dang that air bag costs an arm let alone a leg:rolleyes: .... nice, cant wait to see the pics.:D

Ian there is a sttering wheel with a round airbag on ebay at the moment for £86 you could buy it take the airbag out and sell the wheel on it's own.

Looks like you've got a cracking bargain. Can't believe I missed that auction as I've been looking for an M3 steering wheel for a while!
For a round airbag, try FAB breakers or this fella..I've bought a couple of things from him in the past.

Top work mate, I think that will be my next mod. I remember seeing that one on ebay, I was going to bid, but just got a feeling it would be hassle, glad you got it in the end.
Nice one Ian. That is well cheap. Have thought about an M3 steering wheel. :cool: :cool: :cool:

His feed back wasnt great but took the chance anyway and paid off :cool:
Great price mate, cant wait to see it fitted.
The cruise control would be a bonus, i want to get the same done to mines as i have the old style with the triangle airbag.
