Electronic steering wheel

em4ef82 · 06-20-2019, 05:40 PM

Has anyone installed m performance electronic steering wheel yet? I am wondering if the instructions also apply to GTS, or will you be scratching your head when certain color wire or port is missing due to weight saving improvements done in this car LOL

Well the instructions were spot on, there were no surprises, and the wheel works like a champ.
I guess having done this install twice now helped pass few tricky steps as I completed full install in about 3 hours.

It has different modes you can select and each of them providing various data points; real-time fuel efficiency, G-Force meter, oil and water temperatures, built in stopwatch, lap timer, etc.

I think you need the M3/4 specific wheel. Not the M-sport.

Got mine from there. Good discount, no tax and free shipping.
There are some used ones out there but unless you are 100% sure all the parts are included and functional, I wouldn't risk it on a car like this.
