Talking Just ordered my new steering wheel!

I test drove a 330 a couple years back with this wheel and It was love at first sight.

Morristown hooked it up as usual.

Hopefully will have everything hooked up in a week.

Will post pics asap.


Alcantara Steering Wheel


Part # 32 34 7 919 217

Please note, these pics are not of my whip. Just for refrence.

I pmd the guy, but he never replied.

And for a little more money i could just get a brand new one.

I've heard some issues with the alcantara fallin apart so I didnt want to take any chances with a used one.

Morristown blew me away with there prices, it was a no brainer.

I'll keep u guys posted when i get her installed.

Hey krunk Man,

Congrats on the new steering wheel. You will no doubt enjoy it very much. I had it on my 05 ZHP.

While the steering wheel feels great (especially in the winter) it does tend to rip and deteriorate with time. Quite a few people ended up getting it replaced under warranty for the Leather version. I was going to do the same but just held on to it until the end of my lease. I suggest reading up on maintaining it for long term durability.

What kind of return/warranty policy did you get it with btw?

Sounds good.

just keep in mind that there is an all leather version of that steering wheel out there. If you check e46 fanatics i'm sure you will come accross a few people that did the swap. Might not be a bad alternative. Morristown should know which one it is. In case you change your mind.

Nice Krunk!

I had the tri-stiched leather version on my 3series and LOVED it!

Now about the install...did you have to get the round airbag as well or does your transfer?
