New Steering Wheel
 

i just got my new M steering wheel from 'klerk' many thanks to him. im trying to figure out which type of airbag i need for this, so experts please help me out ~

inside the steering wheel on the sticker label these are the #'s:

BMW-Nr: 3415380 A101
Takata: 305576899239-AA 0015

You need an airbag from a 2004, 2005 or 2006 X5

thanks for the info..just called my local dealership and their price is $895 for the friggin airbag, that's insane..is this the average price?

Does that steering wheel has the heated wheel option? what does a mod like this cost?

i think i found the airbag on realoem

question is..prices on realoem are they retail prices or dealer prices?

I recommend you PM Rob_ to see what he can get you one for. Also, keep an eye on eBay.

looks great - how much ?

none on ebay :( crevier's price is $600...whats his full username or is it just Rob_

It's Rob "underscore" :D. I kid him about the underscore all the time.

$300 if your X is 2003+

Nice Steering Wheel!!! Is that the one being fitted on the Euro X3 with //M package???
Hope you can get a good deal on the airbag :thumbup:

yes!

Thx LemansX5. Does this mod come with the heated steering wheel option?

appreciate it...will be giving him a call on monday

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!

i think it's about the same size, maybe bigger..the handle bars are definitely thicker

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.

so this wheel is indeed off the euro X3 //M// package? where did you get it?

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.

Yes.
BMW of Macon, You cannot get anywhere else in US as its a special order from Europe. Check my earlier post for contact.
Here is another pic for comparison . See this thread for details and more pics.

I thought that "heated" was an option with newer models sports wheels. I know I read it somewhere!
