Crowz will become famous soon enough
Need...maybe not. But till you own one you wont think you need or want it. Once you have it you wont part with it

Thanks for sharing. Can you please post all 3 part numbers for what you purchased? I went to real OEM and they only show one steering wheel, but do not mention if it is heated. Also what is your build date? Mine is 8/11/04.

Here is the retrofit pdf with part numbers. This is the sport wheel which I'm sure you want anyway.

Yes sir. Easy 2 hour job. 1 of the hours for the wheel and slip ring swap and the other to pull the fuse box and get the relay in its spot.

The satisfaction and smile on your face when you first turn it on will offset the investment. You will love it especially this time of year. I was lucky and found a used heated sport wheel on fleaBay for $80. Replaced the button cover panel with a new one from FCP at $30 and it looked new again. I already had a sport wheel so the airbag was a direct fit so a slip ring and relay and I had just over $200 in mine.
