02 Premium Heated S/ Wheel to M S/ Wheel

Is it possible to take off my 4 spoke heated premium and replace it with an M wheel? I dont want to have to mess with wiring, but dont care if i loose the heat. And the M i am looking at has the air bag already.

Yes you can replace your steering wheel with a choice of BMW wheels. You will not have to replace or mess with wiring. Which type of M wheel are you looking at?

The M X3, X5 wheel is the facelifted type, so you will need the airbag to suit. But I see now in you post you have the airbag also.

Yes all the controls will be the same just make sure that every button thats on your old wheel is on the new wheel. If the new wheel is minus heated then you wont have it.
