Once you get it, you'll regret waiting for the old one to be old and worn out. I'll bet Morristown BMW can give you a great price...

Looks great!! It does make it feel like you're driving a new one, doesn't it? I remember when I installed my Sport Steering wheel on mine. I said it does for the interior what my Style 87's did for the exterior (almost).
Congrats!

I want one!

What year M3 wheel did you use? Part #? I assume you had to buy an airbag. How about cost? Everone else out there... Since this was a European car is there any difference with an American vehicle?

Thanks.

do you need to buy a new airbag unit if you have the '00-'03 sport wheel? they do seem to be similar wheels
