For anyone considering this, it's a fairly easy mod to do. Read the DIY and it will cover everything except the paddles. This wheel currently costs $390 + $60 shipping from qalbeli on eBay (before any Microsoft "Live" discounts, which was 8% the last time I looked). I've been watching this wheel for the past several months and it's not getting any cheaper!

Yup, can't keep my hands off the wheel! Haha!

The M3 steering wheel is not smaller than stock. It is just thicker so it gives the illusion that its smaller.

just a rewire job, right?

U don't have to rewire anything if u already have your stock paddles. The M3 paddles are just plug & play.
