is that steering wheel smaller than the stock X5 wheel? same size as the E46 M3 steering wheel? I was considering the E46 M3 wheel w/ SMG paddle conversion but this wheel looks cool!

Not smaller, little thicker than the X5 sports wheel. The leather used is much softer and better and it does not have the plastic feel of the X5 sports wheel.

I have this wheel too - one of my most favorite mods... Yes - it's the euro M-Sport X3 wheel; same diameter is stock X5 sport wheel but much thicker rim; better leather; don't think heat is an option with this wheel; can't imagine getting a better price than you can get from BMW of Macon as LeMansX5 suggested - that's where I got mine - super guys down there in GA! I'd certainly recommend checking them out for the airbag price too or check ebay as others have suggested.
